BUFFALO, NY - Four members of the University at Buffalo women's tennis team have been named to the College Sports Communicators (formerly CoSIDA) Academic All-District Women's Tennis Team, as announced by the organization on Tuesday.
Seniors Ambre Amat and Mariana Carvajal Torres earned the honor for the second straight year while graduate student Jagmeet Kaur and junior Esmee Andresen earn the recognition for the first time in their careers.
To be eligible for Academic All-District honors, student-athletes must be a starter or important reserve with at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average, and they must have reached sophomore athletic eligibility with at least one full calendar year completed at his/her current institution.
The 2023 Academic All-District Men's Tennis Teams, selected by College Sports Communicators, recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom. The CSC Academic All-America® program separately recognizes soccer honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA.
Amat, who owns a 3.778 GPA and will graduate with a degree in environmental engineering, posted a 16-14 singles record and was named MAC Singles Player of the Week on March 5 after notching back-to-back wins over Cleveland State and Cornell. She recorded a team-best 19-11 doubles mark, including an impressive 17-11 record with Andresen with whom she earned two MAC Doubles of the Week honors. Amat finished her career tied for third all-time in program history with 81 singles wins while also ranking seventh with 71 doubles victories.
Carvajal Torres, who owns a 3.899 GPA and will graduate with a degree in communication, went 12-9 in singles action, primarily at the fifth and sixth positions. She also recorded an 8-1 doubles mark.
Andresen, a business administration major with a 3.867 GPA, made an immediate impact in her first season in Buffalo, posting a team-best 23-8 singles record, including a 6-4 MAC mark. She recorded an 18-11 doubles mark, including an impressive 17-11 record with Amat with whom she earned two MAC Doubles of the Week honors.

She was named MAC Singles Player of the Wek on March 19 after earning the clinching point in a big road win at Bowling Green.
