May 20, 2023

North Carolina’s women’s tennis team won its first NCAA championship on Saturday as the Tar Heels beat NC State, 4-1, in a classic final between two familiar rivals at the USTA Campus.

Three consecutive singles wins by Fiona Crawley, Carson Tanguilig and Elizabeth Scotty’s provided the winning margin after UNC had won the doubles point to start the day and the Wolfpack had tied the score at 1-1.

The Tar Heels, who have won the last four ITA Indoor Team National Championships, captured their first outdoor title to cement their place as perhaps the top women’s tennis program in the nation.
