the team was a rejuvenated group from last

the team members played a part in that.
“We’re definitely a different team this
semester,” Ramsey said. “We really came
around and stuck together. The older swim
mers help the younger swimmers feel more
confident.”
Ramsey had an outstanding perfor-

“Everybody likes to win, but I know that
they put in what they could and did the best
they could today, particularly Robyn

Gurney fell to Tu Mai 7-5,7-6. Gurney
said afterwards that her inability to close
the match led to the loss.
“I played well,” shesaid. “Ijustcouldn’t
close out the set. My serve was a problem;

not end until midnight.
In a gear-up meet for the ACCs, team

served to qualify athletes for the NCAAs.

participated in the meet.
Junior Tyra Moore claimed the triple
jump title, finished third in the long jump
and was second in the 55-meter hurdles in
7.78 seconds. She was also fourth in the

so crowded that everybody had to stand
up. It was really hyped-up.”

Both Harrison and Alison Levy, who
lost to Melissa Zimpfer 6-1, 6-0, said the
match was a learning experience.
“It was good in the sense that we can
take today and see what we need to work
on,” Levy said. “We watched what they
did well. They were good examples of
what we need to be.
Harrison also said that it was important
to consider Tennessee’s strength as a team.
The Volunteers defeated Brigham Young
54 on Saturday, while UNC was shut out
by BYU Thursday night.
“We had a tough match with BYU, so I
knew Tennessee would be a little stronger,
even though they’re the lower-ranked team
at this point,” Harrison said.
Levy and Gurney both said that the loss
could help motivate the Tar Heels.
“I think we’ll take this match and use it
to make us more determined to turn things
around in this next week,” Levy said.
Injuries took a toll on UNC against the
Vols. Both Ariana Cervenka and Freddy
Uihlein played through pain in singles and
were forced to default their doubles match.
