CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (April 18, 2025) – The No. 2 seed ETSU women's tennis team knocked off No. 3 seed Wofford in Friday's SoCon Tournament Semifinals from the Champions Club in Chattanooga by a score of 4-2.  Friday's win, which improves ETSU's record to 14-8 on the season, earns ETSU a spot in the SoCon Tournament Final for the tenth consecutive season.
 
Riding the momentum from Thursday's 4-0 shutout win over Samford, the Bucs started Friday well by taking the doubles point with 6-4 and 6-0 victories from the No. 1 and 2 positions. Ksenija Rage and Julia Millan opened singles action on the winning side to boost the Buccaneer advantage to 3-0. Wofford rallied to take the next two contests to get within one of the Bucs but Ralitsa Alexandrova clinched the match for the Blue and Gold with a 6-2, 3-6, 6-1 victory.
