Teams: UC Davis vs. Santa Clara

Records: Aggies, 8-6; Broncos, 2-8

Where: Degheri Tennis Center - Santa Clara, Calif.

When: Today at 2 p.m.

Who to watch: After posting two 13-win seasons at Purdue, Randi Shuler's winning ways have seamlessly carried over to UC Davis in her first year with the program.

The junior No. 1 is second on the team with eight dual wins and is coming off a 6-3, 6-1 singles victory over UC Riverside's Erynne Oki.

After reaching a high of a four-game sweep of Utah the week before, the Aggies' (7-7) bullpen and defense failed them this past week as they dropped four straight contests before salvaging a Causeway Classic victory.

In the four losses, UC Davis relievers allowed 17 runs in 12 innings, while the Aggie defense committed 13 errors.

The UC Davis men's tennis team demonstrated over the weekend that wins can come in multiple fashions.

The Aggies first bulldozed Swarthmore in Saturday's matchup and was later pushed to their limits in Sunday's close win over Sonoma State.

This weekend, the UC Davis softball team was close to experiencing the highest of highs: dethroning the No. 1 team in the nation.

The Aggies came up short but gained confidence that they could hang with the top softball teams. They went on to win three out of the next four contests at the highly competitive Diamond Devil Invitational this weekend.
