The Friars and Racquets will be returning to Phoenix tomorrow for the third match in the best of three series. San Diego lost tonight 27-20 in front of 59 hundred fans at the Sports Arena. San Diego’s women proved effective in the doubles match…Kerry Reid and Mona Guerrant defeated Chris Evert and Kristien Shaw 6-2. But the Friars failed to win a set after that. San Diego must win tomorrow night if they hope to advance into the WTT finals. Evert spoke to TV 8’s Laurie Singer about playing doubles vs. single and the controversy about trans gender player Dr. Renee Richards.
