Not a good start to the singles either, we are down an early break in 3 of the 6 matches, including a double break in Arbuthnott's match

Make that down a break (in 2 matches 2 breaks) in 5 of the 6. Hopefully, it's just a slow start and we'll be able to rally

Well, Higuchi is uncharacteristically down two breaks (0-4), while Arbuthnott is down 0-3.

Not pretty. Emma Higuchi 22-0 in duals the year, gets bageled in the first set.

Lampl wins the first set and Lord serving for the first set, Stanford trying to get something going.

Stanford showing heart after a rough start - Lampl, Lord and Davidson win their respective first sets, so there's a chance.

Even if Davidson, Lord and Lampl can all hold onto their leads, we need a comeback from one of the other 3 matches to win.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it will be Higuchi who is 2 games away from being double bageled.

Doyle is down an early break in the 2nd, so right now it might be Arbuthnott who is 2-2 in the second

Well, what a way for Higuchi's 22-match winning streak in duals to end, in a 6-0, 6-0 loss.

In 2 of the 3 matches where we won the first set, Florida has a lead in the second. Lord is the only one with a break to her advantage in the 2nd.

Arbuthnott has to rally for a break down in the second, already down a set.

Doyle is tied at 3-3 in the second but down a set.

So we have a lot of work still left.

Wow!  What a homer announcer.  Not one positive word about Stanford in 5 minutes.  If a Florida player loses the point, they lost it but Stanford didn't win it.  They're focusing on the matches that Stanford is doing poorly.  Florida's Woolcock is now 3-3 in the second, and they emphasize how wonderful she's doing.

Did ESPN have a memo to ignore any thing positive about Stanford?

I actually haven't gotten that vibe, just that Stanford is fighting for its life.

And the homer announcer is a Stanford man.

Doyle just lost. We need to win the remaining 4 matches to win and it could be a 4-0 sweep with Arbuthnott fighting to stay in it late in the second set.

Bad news is that Taylor Davidson is hurt and has been getting treatment for a while from the trainer, will try to continue but not able to move well.

That is not good, as she is already down a break in the 3rd and a loss clinches it for Florida

Lord wins 6-4, 7-5, so it won't be a clean sweep for the Gators. Florida still up 3-1.

Lampl and Arbuthnott on serve in the 3rd, but Davidson trying to get the break back.

Might be close to the end. Davidson facing a 2-5 deficit in the 3rd and after going up a break each, Lampl and Arbuthnott gave up their leads to go back on serve
