Back in May, Graham knocked Lahey out of the 2019 NCAA Singles Championships in the second round, dropping 7-6, 6-4. Most recently, Lahey got the upper hand when she took the pair's quarterfinal match 7-6(5), 6-1 in the 2019 Oracle/ITA Masters in Malibu, where Lahey eventually won her first crown of the season.

The ITA All-American Championship finals will be aired on ESPNU Sunday at 4 p.m. PT/6 p.m. CT as #14 Lahey goes for her third-straight championship this season.
