Ohio State Men's Tennis (2014/2019/2024 ITA Indoor National Champs, 19 Straight B1G Titles)

Looks like several matches went into overtime, plus a few were won 4-2, and most of all, the latter parts of the line-up came through in the 'gotta win' category. Certainly a team victory. Go Bucks! Might this be a key point in the indoor?

Dropped the dubs point

Stanford took 3 of the first sets, going to need a turnaround here

Likely coming down to Filin in a 3rd set tie break for the win

Filin broke the Stanford player to win outright

Aidan Kim on serve for the win!

Stearns, #2 line, Okonkwo at #4 and Byers #5 couldn’t go today, …
but Filin and Carpico stepped up strong from the bottom of the submitted lineup and added huge points at #5 and 6 singles.

The Buckeyes next play on Monday at 3:30 against the Virginia-Miss St winner.

If they win that, the final would be Tuesday at 6:30, also at the SMU site. Those times may be Central.

 

[bigdog3300]

Virginia won 4-1, so they'll be next

Baylor upset #1 Wake Forest, so the other semi will be Baylor vs. Texas

UVA has always been a thorn in our side come any tournament, let's hope we are healthy for Monday.

Anytime we can beat the Stanford tea-sippers, I'm ecstatic. Sat in stands as Stanford football broke Buckeye hearts with their comeback finish against the Buckeyes in 1970, with Jim Plunkett and Randy Vataha....against our super sophs last hurrah.

Absolutely love this man’s enthusiasm for how elite is the state of NCAA division 1 tennis.
Last question, If Tucker is right, the doubles point will decide the winner this week.
