Pozo competed at Northwestern for three years before transferring to Colorado. The daughter of two collegiate tennis players, Pozo dominated the Missouri Class 2 in high school where she had an overall singles/doubles record of 158-9. As a freshman, Pozo was the state runner-up in singles, which turned out to be her last singles match where she would drop a set, let alone lose the match. She went on to post a 77-0 record as a sophomore, junior and senior with three state titles for a singles career record of 101-2.
At Northwestern, Pozo played in eight matches as a freshman, finishing with a 4-4 record in singles and a 6-1 doubles record. As a sophomore she had a 16-10 singles record, playing mostly in the No.4 singles matches. She was also 8-5 in doubles matches. Her junior season was cut short, but not before she went 5-6 in singles in the fall and 4-5 in doubles, bringing her collegiate career totals to 25-20 in singles and 18-11 in doubles play.
"I've known Caroline since her days as a junior in the Missouri Valley section," said Steinberg. "I've followed her successful career at Northwestern, and I was thrilled when she showed interest in Colorado. Caroline is a fierce competitor and will be an excellent role model to the younger players. At NU she played under one of the best coaches in the country (Claire Pollard) so she is joining us with a wealth of knowledge and experience."
Colorado had its 2020 season cut short due to the COVID pandemic but hopes to compete this spring. No official schedule announcements have been made by the Pac-12 or CU.
