Cardinal Falls To Virginia, 4-0

STANFORD, Calif. – No. 21 Stanford dropped a 4-0 decision to No. 3 Virginia on Sunday afternoon at the Arrillaga Tennis Center-Taube Pavilion.

Sunday’s result was a rare home loss for Stanford (9-5, 2-2 ACC), which had not suffered a defeat on The Farm since falling 4-2 to No. 10 USC back on April 7, 2023.

The Cardinal had also won two straight entering today’s match, defeating Virginia Tech 4-1 on Friday after beating Duke 4-2 to split last week’s road trip.

Virginia (12-2, 4-0 ACC) claimed a hard-fought doubles point but not before Stanford battled to secure a 6-2 win at the top spot from Alex Chang and Alex Razeghi.

In singles play, Stanford was primed to make a comeback having claimed first set on court Nos. 3-6.

However, Virginia converted points at the top of the lineup for a 3-0 lead and received the clincher on court four, when Jangjun Kim outlasted Jagger Leach 2-6, 6-2, 6-2.

Stanford remains at home next weekend, hosting SMU on Friday, March 13 (5:30 p.m.) and Boston College on Saturday, March 14 (3:30 p.m.).
