Despriet and Petty become three-time All-Americans

SEWANEE, Tenn. – Brooke Despriet and Katherine Petty do it again, the duo is now 3x All-Americans as they head to Rome, Ga. to compete in the ITA Small School Championships.

Despriet and Petty faced Perez and Kantrovitz from Emory as they won 6-4, 6-1, a team they had not previously beaten. Their win over Emory makes them champions of the ITA Regional Cup, two years in a row, and sends them to the ITA Championship Cup as reigning national champions in both the fall and spring.

"We feel very fortunate to have repeated as regional champions. We know how good Ana Perez and Emily Kantrovitz are as a team," said head coach Conchie Shackelford. "Our girls were on top of their games today. They are a great combination of power and touch. We look forward to returning to Rome with Jordan and Quinn to compete in the ITA National Championship."

This win for the pair sends them into their 5th national tournament. In their previous four national tournaments, the Despriet and Petty have only dropped one set.

Despriet and Petty join Jordan Theron and Quinn Wicklund as both doubles teams head to Rome, Georgia on October 11 and 12 to compete for a fall national championship at the ITA Championship Cup.
