Talk about an exclamation point to christen a historic championship.
Abbey Forbes served an ace to clinch the fourth straight ITA Division I Women’s National Team Indoor title for the University of North Carolina on Monday at Nordstrom Tennis Center in Seattle.
The second-seeded Tar Heels prolonged their indoor dynasty by beating unseeded Georgia 4-0 in the championship match to capture the program’s seventh National Indoor title overall. UNC is the first program in ITA National Indoor history to win four straight titles. The Tar Heels have won five titles in the last six years and seven in the last decade.
The match pitted teams with plenty of championship experience. The Tar Heels were making their 11th appearance in the National Indoor title match while Georgia was making its ninth appearance.
UNC exacted a bit of National Indoor revenge on the Bulldogs after losing to them in the 2019 final. But the Tar Heels haven’t lost since a match in the event since, rolling off four straight title runs.
