Syracuse (7-4, 1-3) heads to North Carolina for a Tobacco Road trip after a 12-day break from ACC competition. The Orange take on No. 1 North Carolina on Friday, March 18 at 3 p.m. followed by No. 5 Duke on Sunday, March 20 at Noon.
The Orange are 1-3 in ACC play but are coming off a strong 4-0 victory against Clemson. The win improved Syracuse's overall record to 7-4.
Strong play by freshmen Shiori Ito and Miyuka Kimoto have bolstered Syracuse's efforts. Ito started the season with seven consecutive singles wins and is 4-0 from the No. 4 position. Kimoto carries five victories from the No. 2 spot and two out of the top singles position. Both have eight wins in doubles competition and are a major part of the Orange's 9-2 record in doubles as a team.
Reigning All-American Viktoriya Kanapatskaya has grown stronger as the season progresses. Her 3-1 ACC singles record tops the Orange as she boasts five wins out of the No. 1 spot. Kanpatskaya's overall spring record is 16-5, including seven wins in her last eight singles matches. Junior Polina Kozyreva also began the spring slate on a scorching hot run, winning nine of her first 10 singles bouts.
North Carolina features four top-25 ranked singles players as well as the nation's No. 1 doubles pair in Fiona Crawley and Elizabeth Scotty. The Tar Heels enter the match with a 15-0 record and are one of only two undefeated teams in the nation.
Duke starts the weekend with an 8-1 overall mark, including a 4-0 record in ACC play. The Blue Devils feature a trio of singles players and two doubles pairs in the ITA rankings heading into their match against Boston College on Friday.
