Liberty’s Nadia Solomon-Burgess and Jordan Jenkins competed this past weekend at the Wilson/ITA Atlantic Regional.

The junior defeated Alexis McCoy of Morgan State, 6-1, 6-1, to open the qualifying bracket. Later, Solomon-Burgess topped St. Joseph’s Jen Kedierski, 6-3, 6-0, to advance into the main regional draw.
In the main regional bracket, she joined teammate Jenkin. Solomon-Burgess fell in her opening contest in the main draw to Ragini Acharya of William & Mary, ranked 107th in the country, 6-1, 6-1. Meanwhile, Jenkins dropped a 6-3, 6-2 decision to Shannon Betts of Virginia Tech.
In doubles, the two teamed to defeat the No. 7 seed in the bracket, Kristina Kopricina and Thaddea Lock of Marshall, 8-3, in their opening match. Later, Solomon-Burgess and Jenkins fell to William and Mary’s AnikCepeda and Carmen Pop, 8-5.
