🔼 Hoos Choice Awards. Kate Douglass and Iñaki Montes took home the top honors at the Hoos Choice Awards on Sunday, earning the IMP Award as UVA’s top female athlete and WINA Award for top male athlete, respectively.
🔼 How Sweet It Is. Three is officially a streak - UVA women’s tennis is headed back to the NCAA Tournament Round of 16 for the third straight year after a 4-0 win over Princeton on Saturday.
After the Hoos snagged the doubles point to begin play, Melodie Collard, Sara Ziodato and Annabelle Xu all won singles matches to clinch the victory. Xu, who rebounded from a 6-0 first-set loss to win in three sets, was the clinching point.
