CHARLESTON – With only a handful of weeks left of their Fall competition calendar, members of the Charleston Southern Women's Tennis team headed to Chapel Hill, North Carolina for the 2025 ITA Carolina Regionals tournament.
Across the four days of tournament competition, the TennisBucs went 10–9 overall across singles and doubles, including a 6–6 mark in singles and a 4–3 record in doubles. Camila Molina Barranco opened the event with two dominant straight-set singles victories over both UNC Wilmington and UNC Asheville, while Carlota Farres Carreter secured one of the most hard-fought wins of the tournament against Coastal Carolina. Brenda Yoris and Carle Botha each added singles wins of their own.
On the doubles side two returners from last season's Big South Championship roster, Yoris and Botha were the standout pairing, posting a 2–1 record with wins over UNC Greensboro and South Carolina State. Marina Skegro and Farres Carreter pulled out a dramatic tiebreak victory against App State to cap off a solid 1–1 showing for the duo. The team's depth was on display early in the tournament, earning five of its six singles wins on the opening day and maintaining competitive energy through the weekend.
