Blokhina lost to Kimmi Hance, too, 6-2, 7-6. Hance is the preseason #17 player in the country and should be UCLA's #1, so it's not a terrible loss. Hopefully she and Xu can make a run in the consolation bracket and pocket some good wins.
But Glozman knocked off Oklahoma's Alina Shcherbinina, the preseason #56 player, 6-2, 6-4, so that's a nice early sign from her! She'll get Duke's Elizabeth Coleman (#53) in the second round.
Ma is on court now against Ohio State's Luciana Perry, the preseason #23 player, so that's a tough first round draw. After they exchanged some early breaks of service, they're back on serve now. Currently 4-4 in the first.
And yeah, A&M is crazy top-heavy. If someone is going to beat them this year, it'll be a team with some of these characteristics: great at doubles; great depth on the back courts; ability for someone in the top 3 to steal a match.
