Bentley was ranked just ahead of Dieskova as the No. 49 singles player in the nation, according to the Intercollegiate Tennis Association. Oregon head coach Nils Schyllander said he was happy about the effort his second-year player gave after losing her first match of the season. “It was a big win for Dominika,” said Schyllander, who is in his third season as head coach at Oregon. “Any time you pick up a win against a ranked player, it gives you confidence.” On the doubles side, Dieskova and senior Daria Panova were successful in their opening round matchup against 60th-ranked Marianne Baker and Romana But of Maryland, 8-6. Despite having only played just one career doubles match together, Dieskova and Panova earned a No. 30 pre season ranking. Panova is Oregon’s top returning senior this season af ter having won three Pacific-10 Conference singles tijles in her career and earning the No. 12 ranking as a singles player. She is also one singles victory shy of becoming the all-time career leader in wins at Oregon, passing Krissy Barger who had 73 from 1991-94.
