Mary Washington junior Shelby Harris earned a spot in the 32-player singles draw of the 2015 NCAA Women's Tennis Championships in Mason, Ohio.

This marks the first NCAA singles appearance for Harris, who advanced to the quarterfinals of the doubles tournament last year with Lindsay Raulston. The CAC Player of the Year, Harris posted an 18-9 singles mark this spring. 

Additionally, Harris and freshman doubles partner Kait Brogan were tabbed as the Atlantic South region alternatate for the doubles field. Harris and Brogan boast a 6-4 overall record this year. Any singles player or doubles team that scratches from the tournament will be replaced by the next individual or doubles team from their region.

The team championship will take place May 18-20, and the individual championships May 21-23, both at Lindner Family Tennis Center in Mason, Ohio, and will be hosted by Ohio Northern University and the Warren County Convention and Visitors Bureau.

The draw for the individual championship will be done by the women’s tennis committee and will be released on the last day of the team championship.

The individual championships consists of 32 singles players and 16 doubles teams. The selection of teams and individuals for the championships is based on win-lost record, strength of schedule, and eligibility and availability of student-athletes.
