BLOOMINGTON, Ind. –––– Indiana Men's Tennis is looking to build on its four-match winning streak this weekend when it hosts Southern Indiana on Sunday for a double-header at the IU Tennis Center.
The first match will start at 10 a.m. with the second following after a 60-90 minute intermission.
The Hoosiers are red hot after beating Butler, Ball State, Dartmouth and Xavier in their previous four matches. Additionally, Indiana has won six of their seven matches to start the season.
In each of Indiana's wins, it has never allowed the opponent to score more than two points in a match thus far, too.
Indiana has found plenty of success at both singles and doubles. Freshmen Sam Landau and Ekansh Kumar have been sparkplugs for the lineup in singles play, holding records of 4-0 and 5-1, respectively. Junior Ilya Tiraspolsky is 4-1 in singles action, as well.
In doubles, Indiana has a collective record of 15-3 across all doubles combinations. Indiana's Ilya Tiraspolsky and Patrick Fletchall have a season record of 3-0. Their strong play together has earned them national recognition with the ITA ranking them as the No. 46 overall doubles duo in the country.
Additionally, Luka Vukovic and Ekansh Kumar are a 7-0 in doubles play this season, too.
Southern Indiana is off to a 2-2 start to the season. The Screaming Eagles own wins over IU Southeast and West Liberty with losses to Bellarmine and Dayton.
