Tennis Rankings were released on Tuesday by the Intercollegiate Tennis
Association (ITA) and the Duke women's tennis team has been tabbed No. 4.
Duke returns five of six starters from last season and welcome one of the top recruiting classes in the nation, after posting a 23-6 record in 1999-2000. Returning for the Blue Devils are senior Megan Miller (Palm City, Fla.), senior Kathy Sell (Moorestown, N.J.), sophomore Katie Granson (Bethlehem, Pa.), sophomore Hillary Adams (New York, N.Y.), and sophomore Prim Siripipat (Mexico, Mo.).
