April 27, 2017
COLUMBIA, S.C. ââ’¬” Freshman Mia Horvit of the No. 14 South Carolina women’s tennis team was named to the SEC All-Freshman Team and the All-SEC Second Team, the league announced Thursday. She follows in the footsteps of sophomore Ingrid Gamarra Martins who was named to the SEC All-Freshman Team last year. Horvit is the first Gamecock rookie to be named to the All-SEC Second Team since Ana Marija Zubori received the honor in 2007. Horvit finished the season with a 22-11 record in singles play, including an 11-10 record in dual-play and five wins in the No. 1 spot. She has maintained an Oracle/ITA Ranking for the duration of the spring, reaching her highest career ranking of No. 52 in the April 25 rankings. In the fall, she went 11-1, winning the ITA Carolina Regional consolation singles title and later taking the overall singles title at the Jack Kramer Invitational in Los Angeles, Calif. She has notched four ranked wins this season, including wins over No. 63 Kassidy Jump of Arizona St., No. 79 Rosie Johanson of Virginia, No. 45 Rachel Pierson of Texas A&M and No. 115 Ana Oparenovic of Arkansas. Horvit and the Gamecocks are waiting to see their names announced for the NCAA Tournament during the selection show airing on NCAA.com at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, May 2. The Gamecocks are hoping to host one of the 16 NCAA Regionals, beginning May 12.
