CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – Carolina women's tennis is set to participate in two tournaments held by the Intercollegiate Tennis Association this weekend. Two Tar Heels will compete at the ITA Conference Masters Championships in Rome, Ga., while the rest of the team will play at ITA Sectionals hosted by Penn. Both tournaments will be held Nov. 5-8.
ITA Conference Masters Championships
The ITA will host their annual Conference Masters Championships in Rome, Ga. this weekend. From Carolina, Alexis Nguyen will play in singles and doubles with her partner Aya Manning.
The tournament also provides an opportunity for players to clinch a spot in the 2026 NCAA Singles and Doubles Championships later this fall. Four singles players will qualify for the NCAA Singles Championship (semifinalists), and two doubles teams will qualify for the NCAA Doubles Championship through the Conference Masters (champion and finalist).
ITA Sectionals
The 2026 ITA Sectionals will take place at four different campus sites Thursday-Sunday. The East Sectional will take place in Philadelphia as Penn hosts teams from the Atlantic, Carolina, New England and Northeast regions.
Sectionals also provides athletes an opportunity to secure their spot at the NCAA Singles and Doubles Championships. The tournament will qualify six singles players from each section (semifinalists and two quarterfinal playoff winners) while three doubles teams from each section will qualify (champion, finalist, and third place).
