Hello Friends of Badger Men's Tennis,

Your Badgers picked up a very gritty 4-3 win over a tough Western Michigan Team last Saturday at Nielsen Tennis Stadium.  We had a great atmosphere to begin the match thanks to our Women's Team hosting a kids clinic for local Madison youth!  The match, however, did not start of great for our guys, with WMU picking up the always important doubles point with wins at #2 and #3.  Gabriel Huber tied the match at 1-1 with a quick 6-1, 6-2 win at #3 singles.  Huber has been out since January 31 with an injury and his return gave us a huge lift in our singles lineup.  WMU answered with straight set wins at #1 and #4 to take a 3-1 lead with three matches to play.  But your Badgers did not flinch!  Next, Lenard Soha and Tim Dzhurinskiy continued their strong spring seasons with big wins at #2 and #6 respectively, to tie the match at 3-3.  The last man standing for your Badgers was Sebastian Vile at #4 singles for the second time this season.  Vile came through once again, coming back after dropping the first set with a 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 to clinch the dual for the Badgers!

Full Recap HERE.

Up next we travel to San Diego, CA for Spring Break.  We play #13 Harvard on Tuesday, March 15 at 10am PST and #37 San Diego on Thursday March 17 at Noon PST.  The team is really looking forward to a great trip out West for the opportunity to take on two very good programs.  Our next home weekend is not until April 8 versus Northwestern and April 10 versus Illinois.  Please also mark your calendars for April 28-May 1 as we get set to host the Big Ten Team Championships.  We hope to see you back at Nielsen Tennis Stadium soon!

As always, thank you for all your support!

On, Wisconsin!

Hello Friends of Badger Men's Tennis,

We had a great weekend on the road in the Pacific Northwest splitting a pair of matches versus the Pac-12.  We started the weekend with a very good win over a tough Oregon team.  Oregon has had a very solid start to their season including a huge home win over Pepperdine, but your Badgers were up to the task.  We started off strong by winning the doubles point, and getting a quick win by Daniel Nuzhny at #6 to put us up 2-0.  After a loss at #1, Sebastian Vile earned a straight set win at #4 to put us up 3-1.  The clinching point would prove very tough to win as we were in 3rd sets in the final three matches.  Tim Dzhurinskiy came up with the clinching 4th point with a 2-6, 7-6 (2), 6-4 win after saving match point in the second set.  Parts capped off the 5-2 team win with another come from behind singles 3-set win for the Badgers.  

Sunday's match versus Washington proved to be a little too tough.  We started the morning great earning the doubles point with wins at #1 and #3.  Unfortunately, we could only pick up one win in singles with Dzhurinskiy at #5.  Washington is currently 9-3 and just came off hosting the ITA National Team Indoor Championships and was very sharp on their home courts.  

Full Recaps and box scores below:

UW vs Oregon--5-2 Win HERE

UW vs Washington--2-5 Loss HERE

We are very excited to play back at home this Saturday at Noon versus a very good Western Michigan team.  WMU has played a tough schedule so far and is currently 4-5 on the season including a 6-1 win over Michigan State.  We expect a very competitive match and having a great crowd will certainly help us this Saturday.  Hope to see you at Nielsen Tennis Stadium (Indoors) this Saturday at Noon!
