Bucks were down 0-3,
Anthrop win adds one point,
In third sets at #1, 5 & 6.
Will need all three remaining third set matches to survive.

Re: #13 Aidan Kim (OSU) def. #5 Ozan Baris (MSU) 6-3, 5-7, 7-6 (7-4)
- In the feature match on court one, Aidan Kim started with a 6-3 victory over No. 5 Ozan Baris in the first set. Baris then evened the match with a 7-5 win in the second. In the third, the two held serve into a tiebreaker. With the team match on the line, Kim jumped ahead first 4-2. He then went up 6-3 and had the serve. Baris fended off one match point but Kim got him first serve in and won the next point to take the tiebreaker 7-4.
Re:
Ohio State 18-2; National ranking #3
Michigan State 11-6; National ranking #32
Anyway the Buckeyes have to start winning the doubles point; especially against the better teams.
The Buckeyes return home to host UCLA and USC next weekend. Depending on the forecast the matches will be played outdoors.

The G.O.A.T.
Was out of town and was able to keep up with the Michigan match via Twitter, didn't even think I'd have to follow along for the MSU match but what a comeback! Absolutely agree about the doubles trend, concerning for sure.
Maybe what this team lacks in top end talent they are making up for in grit and moxie.

Just sayin':
1) As a doubles team Carpico/Filin have by far the best doubles record, i.e. 18-2; however, they typically play in the #2 or #3 spot.
2) Did anyone notice that there is only 1 SR on the men's tennis team this year?
3) There are 13 players on the current team.
4) For the 2025-2026 season, NCAA Division I men's and women's tennis programs will have roster limits of 10 players, allowing programs to fully fund 10 scholarships, but not requiring them to do so.
5) With the possibility of all but 1 player returning for the 2025/2026 season they should have a really good team again; but, they may not be able to add anybody.

Too soon old, too late smart
Historically, college scholarships have been 'split', giving more players a share of the pie. 10 fully funded scholies, could be broken down to fund more than 10 players if coaches/ADs so desired. Hoping this is still 'so'. Guess that NIL could/would be available to fill in the missing pieces. Anyone know if an out of state player has to be reponsible for his/her tuition if no scholarship awarded? And yeah, saw how young the current tennis team is. Go Bucks!

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Just sayin':
1) All players have to have their tuition paid for (i.e. covered). If they aren't on a full athletic scholarship they could get other scholarships/grants too based on academics and/or financial need, etc. In addition, there are now NIL opportunities too.
2) The way I read it is the 2025/2026 D1 tennis teams can only have 10 players and they can (but don't have to) award 10 scholarships. If money is tight in the school's athletic department, they could give a player a partial scholarship (or even none at all). With that in mind I'm guessing that no top rated player will be playing at a D1 school in 2025/2026 without a full scholarship. With the competition and the transfer portal I'm pretty sure that another school will be more than willing to offer that player a full ride plus (maybe) evn a NIL deal too..
3) The issue with Ohio State for 2025/2026 (as I see it) is 12 2025/2025 players eligible for another year and an incoming Freshman which could result in exceeding the 10 player limit with. I'm sure that this situation isn't unique to Ohio State; undoubtedly many other D1 tennis teams have well over 10 tennis players possibly returning too. I've also seen articles alluding to the possibility of being able to "grandfather in" these players that were already on the team, etc.

New NCAA Men’s Tennis Scholarships Limits
Starting in the 2025-2026 academic year, the NCAA will eliminate D1 scholarship limits if a proposed settlement is approved, enabling all sports to distribute scholarships more flexibly among athletes. This change is expected to have a significant impact on college tennis recruiting. More details and the latest updates here. These changes will impact men’s tennis recruits in the following ways:- D1 men’s tennis programs will be allowed to offer 10 scholarships, up from the current limit of 4.5.
- D1 men’s tennis will have a maximum roster limit of 10.
- D1 tennis is already an equivalency sport and will continue to offer both partial and full scholarships to recruits.
Men’s tennis scholarships by division level
| Division Level | Number of Teams | Total Athletes | Current Average Team Size | 2025-26 Roster Limit | Current Scholarship Limit | 2025-26 Scholarships Limit* | Scholarship Type |
| NCAA D1 | 236 | 2.395 | 10.1 | 10 | 4.5 | 10 | Equivalency |
| NCAA D2 | 153 | 1,670 | 10.9 | N/A | 4.5 | 4.5 | Equivalency |
| NCAA D3 | 302 | 3,434 | 11.4 | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| NAIA | 87 | 1,007 | 10 | N/A | 5 | 5 | Equivalency |
| NJCAA | 58 | 526 | 9 | N/A | 9 | 9 | Equivalency |
*Scholarships Limit Per Team: This is a maximum limit that the NCAA places on the number of full-ride equivalent scholarships that a team can award. When an NCAA Division 1 and Division 2 tennis program is fully funded, college coaches have a maximum of 10 and 4.5 full-ride equivalent scholarships to award, respectively. While it is not impossible to receive a full-ride tennis scholarship, these are generally reserved for international athletes. Division 3 and Ivy League schools do not offer athletic scholarships. Instead, recruits can look to academic scholarships for financial funding.
**Equivalency Scholarship: Equivalency scholarships allow college coaches the flexibility to divide up their scholarship budget however they see fit each year. This means fully funded NCAA Division 1 and 2 programs can take the 10 and 4.5 full-ride equivalent scholarships and divide the budget to award a partial scholarship to each athlete on the roster. College coaches can also choose to award larger scholarships to fewer roster holders, which would leave some athletes with no financial funding. Programs that aren’t fully funded have fewer than 10 and 4.5 equivalency scholarships.
