Athens, Ga. - The No. 1-seeded William and Mary doubles team of senior Megan Moulton-Levy and sophomore Katarina Zoricic won the battle of national champions, defeating No. 18-ranked Kady Pooler and Roxanne Clarke of Arizona State, 6-2, 6-4, in the first round of the NCAA Doubles Championship. Moulton-Levy dropped her second round NCAA Singles Championship match to No. 40-ranked Tracy Lin of UCLA in three sets. The University of Georgia is hosting the NCAA Championships in Athens, Ga.
