PACIFIC PALISADES, Calif. - University of Tennessee women's tennis player Rosalía Alda was eliminated from the main singles draw at the 2010 Riviera/ITA Women's All-American Tennis Championships on Thursday evening at the Riviera Tennis Center.
Alda, a senior from Round Rock, Texas, fell to SMU's Marta Lesniak, 6-1, 6-2. Lesniak is ranked No. 22 nationally but had to play through the qualifying round to reach the main draw.
Lesniak was the Conference USA Player of the Year last season after she went 29-7 for the Mustangs. She advances to face Kristi Boxx of Ole Miss, who defeated Florida's Allie Will, 4-6, 6-4, 7-5.
Alda now awaits her matchup in the main singles draw consolation round, which will be held tomorrow and Saturday. Teammate Brynn Boren played in the qualifying singles consolation, falling to Jillian O'Neill of Georgia Tech, 6-0, 6-0.
