We discussed her a little bit when she committed (here's that link: https://thecardboard.org/board/showthrea...ana+geller), but as the #60 player in the ITF junior rankings, she's absolutely a scholarship-caliber player. Since November of last year, she's got a 12-3 record against blue chip recruits, though most of those wins are against players a year or two younger, but that's tournament play for you.
Here's an article from September about her commitment: https://www.tennisrecruiting.net/article...=306429260. She also took official visits to Vanderbilt, USC, Duke, and Northwestern, so she was pretty clearly locked in on the schools that could give her a great education along with a top tennis program. She was in Argentina through her sophomore year (mostly practicing against top boys due to the lack of high-level female opponents), and has spent the last year at IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida. She'll fit right in.
