Unlike the controversy of the 4.0 women, a National Champion was decided for the 18 & Over 5.0+ women today in straight forward fashion with a dominating performance.
The semi-finalists were an undefeated Texas, SoCal, and Mid-Atlantic, with a 3-1 NorCal winning the sets lost tie-breaker over Missouri Valley to get the 4th spot.
Texas hadn't lost a set on their way to the semis, and it didn't stop there beating NorCal 3-0, while SoCal beat Mid-Atlantic 2-1. In the final, the score says SoCal got a match in a 2-1 loss giving Texas the title, but the match for SoCal was a retirement down a set likely once the other courts were done, so arguably a perfect record for Texas!
Texas, NorCal, and SoCal were all expected to be there based on my predictions, and Mid-Atlantic was one of my dark horses so no real surprises there.
Congratulations to the Texas 5.0+ women!
