PACIFIC PALISADES, Calif. -- Wake Forest women's tennis players Kimmy Guerin and Kasey Gardiner dropped an 8-5 decision in pre-qualifying doubles action at the Riviera/ITA All-American Championships on Sunday, closing the Demon Deacons' run in the tournament.
Guerin and Gardiner, the No. 4-seed in the draw, lost to Petra Horakova and Caitlin Herb or Louisiana-Monroe after earning a bye into the second round thanks to the seed.
The Deacs opened action at the ITA All-Americans on Saturday as Guerin went 1-1 in the pre-qualifying singles draw. She topped Marta Morga of Memphis before falling to Alexis Casati of Illinois in three sets.
Wake Forest returns to action this weekend, Oct. 9-11, when it hosts the Wake Forest Invitational at the Wake Forest Tennis Complex. Admission to the tournament is free.
