Gibbs beats Burdette in all-Stanford NCAA final May 28th 2012, 22:52 ATHENS, Ga. –  Stanford's Nicole Gibbs rallied to beat teammate Mallory Burdette 2-6, 7-6 (5), 6-3 and win the NCAA singles championship Monday. Gibbs, the No. 3 seed, trailed 4-1 in the second set and 5-2 in the tiebreaker before the fifth-seeded Burdette double-faulted to even the match. Gibbs was coming off a three-set victory Saturday over No. 1 seed Allie Will of Florida. Burdette, a junior, was pairing with Gibbs later in the day to play the doubles final against Georgia's Chelsey Gullickson and Nadja Gilchrist. Gibbs, a sophomore, is the first Stanford woman to win the singles title since Amber Liu in 2004. The last championship match with two Stanford women came in 2001 when Laura Granville beat Lauren Kalvaria.
