Senior Lauren Embree headlines a Gator roster that features five members of the last two NCAA title teams. Embree, the No. 1-ranked singles player in the country, enters today's match sporting an overall 20-match win streak, as well as a 38-match win streak in dual match action. ... Three other Gators also enter the match against Duke with a double-digit singles win streak, with junior Olivia Janowicz riding a 13-match run, junior Alexandra Cercone a 12-match streak and freshman Brianna Morgan an 11-match march.
Quoting UF coach Roland Thornqvist: “They (Duke) are one of the two teams that beat us during the regular season. They've lost a couple players to injury so the team we play (today) will be vastly different than the one we played in February."
