Sophomore Georgia Rose extended her winning streak over top-50 singles players to four this weekend with straight-set wins over No. 38 Jessica Zok of Baylor and North Carolina's seventh-ranked Jenna Long. Rose is 7-1 in dual matches with her only loss coming against top-ranked Audra Cohen of Miami (Fla.) In NU's loss to seventh-ranked North Carolina, Rose eased to a 6-0, 6-2 win over Long. In doubles, Rose and partner Alexis Prousis had little trouble at No. 1 defeating Baylor's Zok and Zrustova, 8-3. On Sunday, the duo topped the 24th-ranked pair of Marand and Collins from North Carolina by the same score.

This is Rose's second weekly accolade this year with her first coming on Feb. 7.
