First of all, look at the low rankings for UCLA, USC & Cal. I guess the one player, Julia Rosenqvist (6-1), that graduated from last season really hurt the six singles lineup. Jada Bui also transferred out and was the #4 singles player the prior season but was injured most of last year. DNP.
2022-23 Women's Tennis Roster - California Golden Bears Athletics (calbears.com)It appears that the freshman from Switzerland is playing better in the #6 singles spot. Viller Moeller has been losing regularly this season whether in the #4 or #5 slot. She used to win regularly. Ivanov just returned (injury) to active duty and has been placed at #4. I had kind of given up on her last season when she dropped from the top of the lineup toward the bottom.
New team photos are up. The top row is the heart of the team for the future with three sophs & a frosh. Sophs, Jessica Alsola and Katja Wiersholm, are the two top players. Only Viller Moeller can positively contribute next season from the upperclassmen. Cami Brown (IMO) is the weakest player on the roster and the three others are seniors that will be gone. Bears have one recruit that I'm aware of and she is not highly ranked. She has a similar ranking to Makenna Thiel. HC Augustus has had good success with European players so I would like to see her land an impact foreignor to fill a top three position in the singles lineup. Hailey Giavara needs to be replaced out of the senior group.
Is the transfer portal alive and well in this sport? If so, Cal could go there to get some help. GO BEARS!
