Wherever Alvarado was asked to play, the former conference freshman of the year simply delivered wins as the Oilers finished 4-0 on their Spring Break trip in Florida.
 
Similar to the UF men, the Oilers women faced Adrian, Concordia (N.Y.) and Southern New Hampshire, in order.
 
On Tuesday, Alvarado was paired with Samantha Sweet at No. 1 doubles as they swept their matchup.
 
Two days later, Alvarado and Sweet worked together again for a doubles win and Alvarado came through with a straight set victory at No. 1 singles.
 
To close the week vs. Southern New Hampshire, Alvarado won in the top flight of both singles and doubles again as UF won 6-1 to improve to 6-6 overall.
