GREENSBORO, N.C. – North Carolina's Alexa Graham and Cameron Morra have been named the ACC Women's Tennis Co-Players of the Week and Co-Freshmen of the Week, respectively.

Graham was crucial to North Carolina's 5-2 win over No. 2 Vanderbilt on the road. The junior form Garden City, New York, defeated No. 15-ranked Christina Rosca at No. 2 singles, 6-3, 6-0. Graham also partnered with Jessie Aney in doubles for a 6-2 win at No. 1 doubles over Rosca and Emma Kurtz.

Morra won both her singles and doubles matches in the win over No. 2 Vanderbilt. The rookie from Rockville, Maryland, won the No. 4 singles match over 71st-ranked Carolyn Campana (7-5, 7-5), and then teamed up with Makenna Jones at No. 2 doubles for a 6-2 win over the 25th-ranked pair of Fernanda Contreras and Summer Dvorak.

No. 3 North Carolina (6-0) will compete this coming weekend at the 2019 ITA Team Indoor National Championship in Seattle, Washington. The draw is expected to be announced on Wednesday by the ITA.
