The Gator's three team ofand, raced out to a 4-0 lead en route to a 6-2 victory to secure the doubles point.In singles action, Florida captured the first set on five of the six courts and rode those to straight-set victories. Neel, the lone freshman on the Gator roster, won her second NCAA match, this time logging a 6-2, 6-1 victory for her 20th singles win of the season and gave Florida a 2-0 lead.Austin was next to complete her match, posting a 6-2, 6-2 decision and the Gators took a 3-0 advantage against Miami (13-12). Austin broke Ana Madcur's serve all four times in the second set and then held to close out the win.The Hurricanes prevented the shutout with a 6-2, 6-2 decision on court two, before Danilina also won for the second time in as many days as she downed Silvia Fuentes, 6-0, 6-3, and posted the clinching victory.

Once play resumed, Danilina held serve and broke one final time to secure her team-leading 31st victory of the season."I thought we were ready today. We were really good in doubles. Playing UMass and the pace they brought really prepared us for today. We knew it was going to be a little bit of a different style, tactically different when we played Miami today because they play two back a lot, they like to slow it down, roll and prevent us from moving. UMass yesterday pressed us and tried to move first. Tactically and challenging, I thought our team was really good. We started out strong, had some duce points in doubles early and I think we won all of them – three or four right in a row, in particular on (courts) one and three and that really set the tone for us. We continued to play good doubles throughout."In singles, since they do like to run and roll, we knew that it was going to be a tougher challenge for us at some spots and I thought our team was ready for it. We were ready to play long points when we had to. I thought all along during the three-week lead-up to the tournament that we were playing really well in practice. Sometimes you don't see that in these first two matches because of the rust factor, but I have not seen that with this team. They have been playing as well as they were hitting in practice and I've been really pleased with the weekend overall.""I think we came out really today, in singles and in doubles and did what we needed to do against this team. They aren't really easy to play, they have a lot of good players who are going to fight to the end so you really have to win it yourself. They aren't going to give it to you. Especially in this hot weather, I thought we did a great job competing and what we needed to do to advance to the sweet 16."No. 1 Florida vs. No. 28 MiamiLinder Stadium at Ring Tennis Complex * Gainesville, Fla.Sunday, May 14, 2017: Florida 4, Miami 1(Order of Finish: 1, 3*)1. #11, UF d.
