The Trojan women shut out #35 Utah friday in Salt Lake city to move up to 13-2 and 2-0 in the Pac-12 for the season. After sweeping the doubles senior Alison Ramos lead the singles attack with a 6-3, 6-2 win at #6 singles, after making her way back in the singles line-up. Ramos has struggled for a couple of years lets hope she finally back on track, for she was one of the best southern california juniors a couple of years back. Freshman Gabriella DeSimone was the next to finish with a 6-4, 6-0 win at #5 singles, then Kaitlyn Christian finished things off at #4 singles. Next up for the Trojans is at the Buffloes in Boulder on sunday, hope the girls got some snow play in all this but of course unlikely.
