Main Story

Fanny Bergstrom led UT Permian Basin at the ITA Division II South Central Regional, reaching the singles consolation-draw semifinals before falling to UT Dallas’ Gianna Graci in straight sets. The Falcons went winless in the singles main draw, but Paige Sitanggang and Dinethya Dharmaratne pushed their opening matches to third-set super tiebreakers. In doubles, Dharmaratne and Sitanggang upset the No. 6 seed before exiting in the round of 16.

By the Numbers
  • 6 UTPB women competed in a 64-player singles draw.
  • Bergstrom won 3 singles back-draw matches to reach the semifinals.
  • UTPB won 2 of 6 singles back-draw matches in the round of 32.
  • 3 UTPB doubles teams competed; Dharmaratne and Sitanggang won 1 match.
Yes, But

Bergstrom’s semifinal run was the tournament’s high point, but UTPB did not advance anyone in the main singles draw. The Falcons also had competitive losses, including two opening singles matches decided by super tiebreakers.

Bottom Line

Bergstrom gave UTPB its strongest result, while the Falcons’ close matches showed promise but did not translate into a main-draw breakthrough.
