3 THINGS TO KNOW
- TOURNEY SUCCESS: The Lopes did not drop a point in the 2024 WAC Tournament, winning 4-0 in all three matches.
- WAC IN 2025: With just six WAC teams in women's tennis this season, no regular-season championship was awarded. GCU faced the other five WAC teams on its schedule, going 4-1, but those duals were not recognized as conference matches. The tournament champion will receive an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.
- DON'T CROSS BELLA: GCU freshman Bella Crossman led the way in singles, going 13-4 on the season (5-1 on Court 3 and 8-3 on Court 4). Crossman took home back-to-back WAC Singles Player of the Week awards near the end of the season.
SCOUTING ABILENE CHRISTIAN
Abilene Christian has gone 6-12 on the season, losing 4-3 at home to GCU on April 5. The Wildcats beat Seattle U in the quarterfinal round 4-2 on Thursday.WHAT'S NEXT?
The Lopes need to win to move on to the WAC Tournament championship, where they would either face No. 2 seed Tarleton State, who defeated GCU 4-3 on April 4 in Dallas, or host UT Arlington, which took care of Utah Tech 4-0 in the first round.
