ROCK HILL, S.C. — Four championship matches close out the Big South Fall Tennis Individual Championships on Sunday at the Rock Hill Tennis Center, after two days of play narrowed the field.
Doubles finals are scheduled for 10 a.m. On the women’s side, Presbyterian’s Keira Stewart and Mary Ellen Longmire meet the Charleston Southern pair of Amike Botha and Carle Botha. The men’s doubles final pits Longwood’s Marc Ferrando and Rodrigo Guijarro against Rafael Asadullin and Dario Navarro of Presbyterian.
Singles finals follow at 11:30 a.m. Top-seeded Hima Fernando of Longwood plays second seed Carlota Farres Carreter of Charleston Southern for the women’s title. In the men’s final, No. 1 seed Arijan Kaliterna of NJIT faces Longwood’s Daniel Borisov, the second seed, who beat Soma Fukuhara 6-1, 6-2 in the semifinals.
Kaliterna needed three sets in both of his Saturday matches, including a 7-5, 3-6, 6-4 semifinal over Presbyterian’s Daksh Prasad. The conference lists times as subject to change.
UNC Asheville went 4-0 on the second day in Rock Hill after a rough start, according to Bulldogs coach Dustin Hale, and wraps up its fall schedule Nov. 6-8 at the Wofford Invitational.
