From Minsk, Belarus, to Moscow to College Park, Maryland, and a number of places in between, Eva Alexandrova has had quite the tennis career.
She was ranked No. 118 in the International Tennis Federation’s junior rankings when she signed with Maryland, making her one of the highest-rated recruits in program history, and certainly the highest-rated player in head coach Daria Panova’s five-year tenure. Panova has led a successful, but not-yet-finished turnaround of the once downtrodden program, but has never had a player of Alexandrova’s caliber. Now she’s got the superstar that can take this squad to the next level.
