Can't say enough about JJ Wolfe, Kyle Seelig, and Hugo DiFeo,
Torp win would never matter with out their performances.

True, re dubs point. First time all season Bucks dropped one. It's tough to climb back. But they did today.

The G.O.A.T.
I read the last 5 pages and felt like I went on an emotional roller coaster without watching a point.....any idea if ESPNU or somewhere else will have it live?

Flo tennis is a pay per view covering college tennis. 
Love that Torp overcame the adversity of a 2 break deficit twice, and that questionable overrule and point penalty from the chair that cost him a win at 5-4 in the 3rd set.

Bucks will get Virginia tomorrow in the finals, match begins at 11 am.
Cavs took care of UNC by a 4-0 count.
wish it might have gone longer ...
yesterday when coach Tucker was asked about his teams chances of winning it all.
His answer, "about 3.7%"
I think the odds improved a bit after today's upset,
I'd predict he would now answer, "about 8.7%"
Bucks are a serious underdog to a dominant UVa with home court advantage.

UVa is very solid,
so far they beat #16 Utah State 4-0, beat #8 UCLA 4-0, and beat #5 UNC 4-0.
#1 - Collin Altamirano: Preseason ITA singles ranking of No. 19
#2 - Thai-Son Kwiatkowski: Preseason ITA singles ranking of No. 4; will start the spring season ranked No. 39
#3 - Carl Soderlund: Top player in the ITA National Freshman/Newcomer rankings
#4 - JC Aragone: Preseason ITA singles ranking of No. 69; will start the spring at No. 58
#5 - Alexander Ritschard: Preseason ITA singles ranking of No. 53

I have become a fan of the Universal Tennis Ranking system (UTR).
UTR is a combination of all tournaments, and it seems to be more accurate than ITA rankings in predicting head to head match ups.
this is a quick glimpse at the UTR comparisons for UVA vs. OSU head to head tomorrow.
............................UVA .......................................... OSU
#1 ...Collin Altamirano (14.33 UTR) ........Mikael Torpegaard (15.21 UTR). OSU +.88
#2 ...Thai-Son Kwiatkowski (14.87 UTR)..Hugo Di Feo (14.02 UTR)........... UVA +.85
#3 ...Carl Soderlund (14.61 UTR) ...........JJ Wolf (14.42 UTR) ................. UVA +.19
#4 ...JC Aragone (14.43 UTR).................Herkko Pollanen (13.96 UTR) .... UVA +.47
#5 ...Alex Ritschard (14.56 UTR).............Martin Joyce (13.63 UTR) ......... UVA +.93
#6 ...Henrik Wiersholm (14.32 UTR)........Kyle Seelig (13.93 UTR) ........... UVA +.39

Can you help me better understand the UTR? According to the numbers for Virginia, Altamirano would be playing 5th based on his UTR, but he is at #1. Obviously, the UTR does not fully capture a player's ability, but why the discrepancy between that number and where Altamirano plays in the lineup?
Thanks for any insight.

Whatever this was it wasn't good:
Tubert stopped playing on 3 due to a fan yelling out - Ohio State won the point but the chair has given the point to UVA since OSU stopped
Just sayin': The Buckeye's double teams (Torpegaard/Pollanen, Joyce/Di Feo, and Mendez/Tubert) just don't seem to as dominate as their teams in years past.

The Buckeyes now need to win 4 of the 6 single matches to bring home the hardware:
