And to think we weren't even ranked in the top 75 just a few weeks ago, which we all know was a joke. Glad to see this result.
What happened on the singles match won by Ags ....something about Baylor default for repeated bad calls?

Amongst the confusion of the Aggie's spirited play, the maroon and white were staked to a convincing 2-0 lead as Bhosale got the better of Jean Jean on court four. The Baylor freshman saw the wheels come off after being overruled multiple times in the back-and-forth match. As the dust settled and confusion was erased, the A&M sophomore was award the match by default with a point penalty assessed to Burgic in the first-set tiebreaker against Pierson on court one.

Good win this morning against Auburn. Bring on Bama!
Baylor is known for calling very "tight" lines. Apparently, that young lady was trying to squeeze them too tight and got overruled a few times, so she blew a gasket (and her mouth). Since it's Baylor, nothing is surprising about this. As they taught us, a ball that's 99% out is 100% in. Baylor needs to learn that!
Glad to see the girls are getting things going! Big match on Sunday with Bama!
The women took down Bama today 4-3. Deciding match was over 4 hours long. Florida here on Tuesday. 2 top ten wins in three days. Way to go Ladies
Ags take down #9 Alabama 4-3. Defeated 2 top 10 teams in less than a week. I'll say it again, and to think we weren't even ranked in the top 75 a few weeks ago........which we all knew was a joke.
And I just saw hs10scoach's response .......sorry.
Why haven't they been ranked?
First couple of weeks the rankings were decided by coaches votes. Once the computers kicked in, our 2 wins didn't help out at all. Hadnt played anyone good at the time, so had no quality wins to be ranked by. That has certainly changed.
I came over here just to find out why we were ranked so low...at #30. Didn't realize we weren't even ranked early on. Haha.
Florida is in town on Tuesday, needing a BIG 12th MAN crowd for support. Looks to be a great match. Hope to see everyone out to support the team.

Baylor freshman Leolia JeanJean was penalized a point in the No. 4 singles match with Bhosale after she questioned a call, then continued to argue with the official. That point put the first set into a tiebreaker.
"She hit a good serve, but it was out and she questioned the call," Bhosale said. "The ref overruled her, and she completely lost it and started using foul language and banged her racket and lost the game. [She] yelled and went out of the court, and that is not allowed, so she lost the match. She was expecting to play, and that was not going to happen."
When JeanJean, who was on an eight-match winning streak, returned and learned she had lost the match, she again used foul language, which cost her teammate Ema Burgic a point in her tiebreaker with A&M's Rachel Pierson in the No. 1 singles match.
Thanks for posting the Eagle excert. I believe if the refs assess a penalty for something that isn't related to an ongoing match, then the point penalty goes against the highest ranking match on the court, ie #1 singles and down the list.
BTHO Florida! Whoop!
Good to see the women turning things around. I'm late to the party; where is the Deheza twin? Did she quit?
Women jump from 30 to 15
Ags won the doubles point! keep the momentum moving
The Live Stats show it tied 3-3 with the only remaining match being #6 singles. And it shows it tied in 3rd Set 5-5? Is this correct.
Well I guess it is live. Just updated to 6-6 in tiebreak.
Yes. Hristov up 6-5 in the 3rd now.
Tiebreaker time. Stress
Wondering why we don't have video of the courts?
Florida wins #6 singles and overall 4-3. Tough Loss.
no video because of SEC network regulations. What a shame, and wish the updates were a bit more timely. All the more reason to see it live, I missed the last two and they have been the best two. Let's go ladies, continue your good play on the road.
Sounds like it was a good match.
the girl that clinched it btw is from Dallas so she probably had a fair amount of family support there.

There is a live thread on premium for most home matches. FWIW

"Maria Ines Deheza is the daughter of Rafael Deheza and Ines Landivar...From a family of Aggies, her father and sister, Leny, graduated from A&M, and her twin sister, Paula, was a member of the Texas A&M tennis team as a freshman before retiring due to an injury..."
