Facing a senior who plays for a Power 5 opponent was no match for Valparaiso University women’s tennis sophomore Jelena Vujanic (Elk Grove Village, Ill. / Elk Grove) on Saturday morning.

Vujanic saw her impressive regional run come to an end with a 6-3, 6-3 defeat to Wisconsin’s Alexis Keberle in the second round. Keberle, a Top 16 seed in the event, achieved 2017-18 All-Big Ten First Team honors after playing her entire freshman season at No. 1 singles for the Badgers.

Vujanic’s defeat to Keberle was just her second of the fall season, while the victory over Metcalf was her 12^th of the fall. She has 31 career singles victories as only a sophomore.
