Emory’s Gabrielle Clark wins second singles title
Emory senior Gabrielle Clark won the NCAA Division III women’s singles championship Saturday in Claremont, Calif., the second NCAA singles title of her career. She defeated Jordan Brewster of Amherst 6-2, 6-1.
Clark, the No. 1 seed, lost only three games to the No. 3-seeded Brewer en route to raising her record to 24-4.
In a five-match run to the championship, Clark won in straight sets in each contest and lost more than two games in a particular set only once.
Clark is the second player in Emory history to win two national championships, joining Mary Ellen Gordon (2003-04). Clark and Gordon are two of three Eagles to have national titles to their credit with Lorne McManigle (2009) the other.
Clark finished her career at Emory with a singles won-lost record of 108-21. She ranks second all-time at Emory behind Gordon’s 115 wins.
