ORLANDO, Fla. – The University of Miami women’s tennis team registered a road sweep of a ranked foe Saturday afternoon, defeating No. 23 UCF, 4-0, at the USTA National Campus.

No. 30 Miami (6-2, 1-1 ACC) turned in one of its most impressive performances of the year and picked up its second top-25 triumph of the young season.

The doubles point took nearly an hour to decide, but ultimately went to the Hurricanes. Miami won the opening match, 6-2, behind the strong play of redshirt sophomore Alexa Noel and junior Isabella Pfennig against Sophia Biolay and Marie Mattel.

UCF (5-5) leveled the tally with a 6-3 triumph from Noel Saidenova and Jantje Tilbuerger against fifth-year senior Daevenia Achong and fourth-year junior Maya Tahan.

In the final match, junior Audrey Boch-Collins and freshman Mia Mack won a deuce point in the 10th game to defeat Nandini Sharma and Stefani Webb, 6-4, and give the Hurricanes a 1-0 edge.

The lone ranked matchup in singles was the first one to finish, as eighth-ranked Noel defeated No. 31 Mattel in dominant fashion, 6-2, 6-1. The Summit, N.J., native’s triumph extended Miami’s advantage to 2-0.

It took approximately 25 minutes for the next match to end, but once it did, the Hurricanes held a 3-0 lead. Pfennig topped Tilbuerger, 6-4, 6-1, to put Miami within one point of victory.

Multiple Hurricanes had a chance to close out the match, but Tahan got it done to seal the win. The Tel Mond, Israel, native defeated No. 125 Sharma in comeback fashion, 5-7, 6-1, 6-3, for the second ranked singles victory of her career.

Mack held a 6-4, 1-6, 4-1 lead on Biolay when play came to a halt, while Achong and Webb faced a 6-2, 3-6, 5-5 deadlock. Boch-Collins, meanwhile, narrowly trailed Saidenova, 5-7, 6-4, 0-1.

The victory marked the 402nd of Miami head coach Paige Yaroshuk-Tews’ storied career. She now has 164th shutout victories, including 110 since 2009 alone.

Furthermore, Saturday was Yaroshuk-Tews’ 351st win in 19 seasons as an ACC head coach, tying Kitty Harrison, who led North Carolina for 22 years (1977-98), for fourth place on the league’s all-time list.

Miami continues play Sunday at noon in Tallahassee, Fla., where it squares off with No. 40 Florida State.
