LA MIRADA, Calif. --- Biola kept pace with the 2013 season as the men and women's tennis contingents each landed one representative on the All-GSAC teams presented by Under-Armour.
 
On the women's side, Kathryn Ashford had a dominant season as Biola's No. 1 and a member of the Eagles' top doubles pairing in order to earn her second All-GSAC honor as a sophomore.
 
Lucas Lee was Biola's representative on the men's All-GSAC team, following a successful freshman campaign that included his play as the men's No. 1 and a part of Biola's top doubles pairing.
 
Ashford ended the season ranked as a top-25 player in the NAIA by the Intercollegiate Tennis Association with an 11-8 record in singles play, including a winning record against Golden State Athletic Conference opponents.
 
"Kat's focus and determination help her to stay in points and choose the appropriate shots," said Women's Tennis Coach Dee Henry. "I see good things for next year, as she got a taste of being an all-court player, and she sees how that complements her playing style."
 
Ashford was not only a force in all of her No. 1 singles matches, but was a powerful duo with Susan Carmichael at No. 2 doubles. The pair went 12-4 when playing other No. 2 pairings, and Ashford proved her versatility by also getting a win when paired with Kelsey Post.
 
March was a phenomenal month for Ashford, as she had two different doubles winning streaks of five matches or longer from early-March to early-April. Overall, she was 7-2 in doubles in March and 7-1 in singles matches in that month.
 
"Kat struggled with some health issues in the early part of the season, but the growth we saw in her doubles game really helped her singles," said Henry. "She is quite the team player, as she is always willing to hit with her teammates, and seeing their game develop is one of her greatest desires."
 
Lee impressed coaches and players alike in his first season in the GSAC as he performed well and worked so hard to post solid performances at No. 1 singles and No. 2 doubles.
 
He was 7-15 overall in singles play as he faced some of the top talent in the nation, as the GSAC is home of two of the top-10 NAIA men's tennis teams. He managed a 3-6 record in individual matches against conference opponents.
 
He was especially dominant when teamed with Luke Mountain at doubles. The freshman pair worked their way to a 9-10 overall record split between Biola's No. 1 and No. 2 doubles pairing.
 
"Those guys are the future of Biola tennis. It will be excited to see how they progress over the next three years," said Men's Tennis Coach David Goodman.
