Blue Devils Advance to Elite 8 With Win Over No. 9 UCF

ORLANDO, Fla. – Facing a home crowd in a neutral site match for the second straight time, Duke women's tennis earned its second-straight victory over a top-ten opponent and advanced to the NCAA Tournament quarterfinal, defeating No. 9 UCF, 4-3 at the USTA National Campus in Orlando, Fla., on Sunday evening.

The Blue Devils (18-6) earned the clinching victory in a thrilling three-set win by No. 39 Chloe Beck. Much like her teammate Kelly Chen did in the second round, Beck bounced back from a first set loss to finish off a 4-6, 6-2, 6-4 victory in the final match on court.
