Hall of Famer without a doubt

Hall of Fame Inductees​

Ty Tucker
  • Induction:2004
Tennis, 1989-1991

Two-time All-American … Ohio State’s No. 1 singles player for three years … finished with 64 career singles wins … won 28 singles matches in 1990 … ranks among the OSU leaders in both categories … a two-time NCAA singles participant in 1990 and 1991 … reached the third round of NCAA competition both years he competed … member of the 1991 Big Ten Championship team … three-time All-Big Ten selection.

OHIO STATE MEN’S TENNIS BEATS MICHIGAN, 4-1, TO WIN 16TH BIG TEN TOURNAMENT TITLE​

146967_h.jpg


For the 15th time this century, Ohio State men's tennis has won the Big Ten Tournament.

Ohio State beat Michigan, 4-1, at the Combe Tennis Center in Evanston, Illinois, on Sunday to win its 15th Big Ten Tournament championship since Ty Tucker took over as head coach in 2000. It also marked the Buckeyes' 16th conference tournament title all-time.



Ohio State won the doubles point with ease, as Cannon Kingsley and Jack Anthrop defeated Mert Oral and Bjorn Swenson, 6-1, and No. 35 Justin Boulais and Andrew Lutschaunig defeated Patorn Hanchaikul and Will Cooksey, 6-3. The Buckeyes were also in control of the third doubles match, as No. 2 Robert Cash and JJ Tracy led No. 17 Gavin Young and Jacob Bickersteth, 5-3, when the second match ended.

Following a brief intermission, Ohio State and Michigan started singles matches. As was the case with the doubles point, the Buckeyes cruised to victories over the Wolverines.

On Court 4, No. 29 Anthrop demolished Hanchaikul, 6-1, 6-0, and put Ohio State ahead 2-0 on the scoreboard. Around 15 minutes later, the Buckeyes claimed their third point of the afternoon when No. 18 Kingsley breezed past Bickersteth, 6-3 6-1, on Court 2.

The third match to end occurred between No. 19 Young and No. 33 Boulais. In the lone ranked vs. ranked dual in the conference championship, Young bested Boulais, 6-1, 6-4, to put Michigan on the board.

With a 3-1 team lead, Ohio State veteran Tracy, the No. 16-ranked singles player in America, sealed the victory for the Buckeyes. As he has done for over 100 singles wins in his college career, Tracy delivered, as the senior from Hilton Head, South Carolina, defeated Swenson, 6-3, 7-6.

As the Big Ten regular-season and postseason champions and the No. 1 team in the latest ITA Poll, Ohio State is all but guaranteed to earn the No. 1 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament. As such, the Buckeyes will host an NCAA Regional at the Ty Tucker Tennis Center and Auer Tennis Complex from May 3-5. If Ohio State advances, it will also host an NCAA Super Regional in Columbus on May 10-11. The final three rounds of the NCAA Tournament will be held in Stillwater, Oklahoma, from May 16-19.

Too many times they've been the best team or at least the best team left after upsets and come up short, please let this be the year.

Though I'll selfishly be upset if they win it in a year that it's not in Orlando where I can watch it lol

Is this true though? I mean they were ranked higher than Virginia when they faced off, but the fact that Virginia swept them and then swept them the following year, suggests OSU was likely not the best team.

Illinois remains the only B1G team to win it all. That team had Rajeev Ram who became one of the best doubles players in the world. Hope to catch him yet again at the Western and...er, Cincinnati Open in August.

EDIT: UVA didn't sweep OSU two years in a row. They swept OSU and then the following year they swept UK. Bottom line though, they were the team to beat.

OSU is the #1 overall seed this year but I'm sure people in the know would not consider them the favorites.
