OJAI, Calif. - The California women's tennis team wrapped play at the first-ever Pac-12 Championships on Sunday, April 29, at the Libbey Park courts. A day ago, No. 96-ranked sophomore Anett Schutting became the first Golden Bear to advance to the conference singles title match since Susie Babos in 2007. Her run to the title was cut short by the tournament's top seed in Stanford's No. 3-ranked sophomore Nicole Gibbs who claimed a 6-0, 6-2 win in the championship bout.

Cal fared better in the doubles invitational final where junior Tayler Davis and freshman Laura Posylkin earned a 9-7 victory over Arizona's tandem of Hailey Johnson and Sarah Landsman to take home the invitational title. The Bear duo is the first to capture the invitational crown since Bojana Bobusic and Claire Ilcinkas won it in 2007.

The Bears will now turn their attention to preparing for the NCAA championships. Cal has appeared in all 30 NCAA tournaments and has hosted first- and second-round matches at the Hellman Tennis Complex in each of the last six years. The NCAA will make its announcement of the field of 64 teams during a selection show set to stream on www.NCAA.com on Tuesday, May 1, at 2 p.m. PT.
