BIRMINGHAM – UAB's Dominika Hrabalova and Sydney Clarke have been named to Conference USA All-Conference Teams, the league office announced on Monday.
Hrabalova was named to the All-Conference Singles Second Team. She finished 2021 with a singles record of 10-6, playing primary at #3 singles. Hrabalova had a career-best 10 match winning streak from Feb. 14 until April 22. In Conference USA matches, she had a record of 4-1 and was 10-2 playing against non-Power 5 schools. On March 3, she was named the UTR ITA Division I Player of the Week.
Clarke was named to the All-Freshman Team. She finished 2021 16-5 in singles with a 9-2 record at the #4 spot. In C-USA play, she had a 5-1 record. Clarke defeated Monika Dedaj of Georgia Tech in straight sets and had match points on Anna Parkhomenko of Alabama. Three of her five losses were to SEC and ACC opponents.
"I am very happy for both Dominika and Sydney", said head coach Mark Tjia. "They are definitely deserving of the recognition. They worked very hard and had excellent seasons. They, along with Annalisa Smith and Megan Bertrands, had some of the better individual records in recent memory."
UAB's 14 wins were the most since the 2005 season and the Blazers advanced to the Conference USA quarterfinals for the first time since 2005.
