This

[Rickylovesweed 14262]

So the national title match is between 2 coaches hired by Del Conte. 

Kind of impressive.  

[Aleemay 304]

Will be interesting to see the bottom half of the lineup- who'll play 5 and 6? Two of J Braswell, Brown, Harper, Siem. Got to feel like Harper will play but who else? Depending on who it is will also affect whether Harper plays 5 or 6.

Yeah. Chess match indeed

Harper didn’t play singles in our win against them in the Big 12 tournament. Siem and Jonah both played, at 5 and 6.

Jonah didn’t play singles against them in the second matchup, with Siem and Harper playing 5-6. 

Harper and Jonah were 5-6 in the first matchup (L) with Siem sitting out singles.

What about doubles? Sounds like we could have a different lineup today

Hi UT Tennis Fan,

I am going to keep this brief, as we need to get focused on the task at hand. Our team once again showed great Texas Fight yesterday, and picked up 4 singles wins in straight sets after dropping the doubles point to Wake Forest (full recap of our 4-2 win over Wake Forest in the semifinal). Our NCAA Championship match will be at 4 pm today in Stillwater (preview). If there is any chance at all for you to be here, our guys would sure appreciate it. This will be the last team match for what has been a very special team. Thanks for all your support throughout the season! Hook'em!

Sincerely,

Bruce Berque

@perfectchaos007 can probably opine

Berque alluded in his post match presser that we will probably see PY Bailly back in doubles today. Spizz/Woldeab line 1 doubles, PY Bailly/Talluri line 2, M. Brasswell/Cleve Harper line 3 is what I'm thinking he'll go with. 

 

Lines 1-4 singles will be Spizz, M. Braswell, GA Bailly, PY Bailly respectively. The remaining 2 lines will need to be chosen from the pool of Woldeab, J. Braswell, Harper, and Brown. I think coach will ultimately choose the seniors, but we'll see. 

[Js1 85295]

Almost time

1-4 the same for singles. Siem 5, Jonah 6

Doubles 1-2 as listed above, but Harper-GA Bailly at 3

 

[10SNE1 116]

Another beautiful day and with a nice breeze!

[bigup2dahorns 3343]

Draws are out for singles and doubles, starts up tomorrow

Doesn’t look like GA Bailly is in the doubles line up. He's not warming up with the doubles drills unless he just wants to focus on serves and returning. We'll see.

[perfectchaos007 6626]

Looks like No Baillys in doubles. Same doubles line up as yesterday.

[perfectchaos007 6626]

TCU up breaks on lines 1 and 3. They're in control of the doubles point

[perfectchaos007 6626]

Back on serve at lines 1 and 3 but Texas down a break on 2. Texas hasn't had a break lead on any court yet.

[perfectchaos007 6626]

Talluri double faults on match point. TCU wins on court 2

[perfectchaos007 6626]

TCU takes the doubles point. TCU was never down a break on any court.

[bigup2dahorns 3343]

Go with the same strategy as yesterday. Spot them the doubles point and then come out firing in singles. They will never see it coming.

[10SNE1 116]

Siem out of singles.

[perfectchaos007 6626]

Who can handle these windy conditions best in singles? That will decide this match.

[Js1 85295]

Texas has won 2 first sets. TCU has won 2. The other is tied 5-5 and the last is a Texas lead 

Edited May 19 by Js1

[perfectchaos007 6626]

TCU takes 3 first sets so they are still in the best position to win. Texas will need to win at least 1 third set match somewhere to make a comeback.

[LTtxfan 49146]

C'mon Horns!!! 🤘

[LonghornSean 3989]

Gonna be an uphill battle if we’re gonna get it done.

[Js1 85295]

Micah up 5-2 trying to force a third. 

[The_Great_Hornsby 3236]

Calm it down boys. We are very much in this. Closing in on getting two singles Ws. Gonna need to clutch up but I think we are gonna get it done. 

[The_Great_Hornsby 3236]

I really like our chances on courts 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6

[Js1 85295]

TCU up 2-1

Eliot 6-2, 4-5

Micah forced a third set

Jonah 5-7, 3-2 

Harper 6-3, 4-2

[Js1 85295]

Eliot taken to a third set 

[Js1 85295]

Did Eliot’s opponent quit?

[The_Great_Hornsby 3236]

Gonna come down to winning two 3rd sets. Gotta like our chances with us having the momentum right now.

Live Stats glitched then? They show Eliot won and Texas up 3-2

Must be a glitch. Eliot trails in the third, on serve, 1-0.

[The_Great_Hornsby 3236]

Micah Braswell in control, up a double break on Court 2, which will give us our third point. Just forced a third set on Court 5. And Court 1 we are on serve. Gonna need to take one of Court 1 and 5 to win this thing. 

[Js1 85295]

Micah up 4-1 in the third set

Jonah forces a third 

Eliot in a third 

Can’t say it isn’t exciting AF

[Firemans4Horn 18036]

This might be the most difficult thing to try and follow on tv ever. 
 

[The_Great_Hornsby 3236]

Eliot broken. Down a break on court 1, on serve on court 5. Need 1 of those 2 to break our way.

Falling apart 

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Damn, this viewing is sad on the app. 

[The_Great_Hornsby 3236]

Texas leads 3-2. Officially down to Court 1 and 5. 

[Firemans4Horn 18036]

Micah’s a beast.
