AROUND THE OVAL: TENNIS TEAMS, SOFTBALL, MEN'S VOLLEYBALL STAY PERFECT IN CONFERENCE, MEN'S LACROSSE DROPS TWO


TENNIS

Both of OSU's tennis teams sit at No. 2 nationally (and both have the No. 1 singles player in their sport) and each continued to show their dominance on the court with some Big Ten wins this week.

On the men's side, the Bucks took on Iowa March 31 and Nebraska April 2. In those two matches, the team was flawless, winning by a combined score of 14-0.

In the matchup with Iowa, redshirt freshman Alex Kobelt was particularly impressive, and was also able to get his first-ever Big Ten win with 6-0, 6-0 win over the Hawkeyes' Tony Leto.

Against Nebraska, the Buckeyes were dominant again. In singles, no Buckeye lost even a single set and both senior Herkko Pollanen and junior Hugo Di Feo won their matches 6-0, 6-0.

Junior Mikael Torpegaard was able to keep his record perfect and is now 19-0. The team now sits at 20-3 and 4-0 in the Big Ten.
