4-1 over aggy, and yeah the lone point for aggy came on Gorzny’s court. 
 

Welp, tomorrow it’s on to face the team that owns us in Virginia. 10 consecutive losses is enough. We can’t be a serious program and lose 11 consecutive times to another program…

In the last 3 matches all against top 15 teams:

3 doubles points!!

Timo 2-1 (nail biting 3 setter vs defending US Open jr champ)

PY 3-0 (6 sets)

Jonah 2-0 + unfinished 

Timo will get a chance at redemption tomorrow against Jodar. 
 

To your point about Gorzny, I don’t know who would play line 2 if he drops down? Braswell played line 5 last year as well, so he would have to make the same jump as Gorzny if we put him at 2. I suppose PY Bailley could be bumped up to #2 and Gorzny #3, Braswell #4

Definitely give Pierre a shot at line 2. He's been doing great these past few matches.

It was a fun environment being there today. Some matches were closer than I would have liked them to be.

A&M should be stronger once their transfers get cleared to play, according to my brother.

That sure was a nail biter! I got tired of hearing "Let's go Wahoos." Nice of Texas to quiet that down. Btw, SMU has a nice venue. Glad I attended.

Wake has an even bigger cheerleader bench army if you’re going Monday

Virginia was damn good on 1, 2, and 4. They’ve got some major hookers though, grateful for elc 

Great second set fight on 1, 3, 4 and then 1-4 finished third sets either with key breaks or the breaker winner on 4

Hopefully we get electronic line calling in the NCAA tourney too. It would be a welcomed addition, but it might put parsa out of business.

I'm on the fence in attending on Monday. I work plus I'll be driving in from Grapevine. I was thinking of going Tuesday if Texas makes it but with the weather forecast being what it is, I might be stuck at home watching it online on YouTube. I do plan on attending the TCU match in Ft Worth and the NCAAs in Waco!

I'm all for the electric line calling! How many over rules do the players get til they lose a point? How many challenges are allowed?

I think its 3 over rules and you get defaulted from the match

3 challenges per set. Point penalty on 4th overrule. Don’t think there was a point penalty yesterday.

Thx!

It was interesting on how many times the up ref (?) was also overruled when watching PYs match yesterday.

Braswell lost. Wake wins 4-3. 

Need to work on doubles, and figure out what to do with Gorzny who hasn't won a singles match since January. 

Getting blown off the court in doubles the last 2 matches was pretty surprising.
 

PY dropped the first set today and Sat, but quit playing with his food to win fairly handily in both matches. He has to move to 2 going forward.

Oliver has been very impressive in the 1st sets of play but has a mental lapse in the 2nd? Maybe have him switch with Jonah.

Hi UT Tennis Fan,

I hope you are staying warm! We just got back from The National Indoor Championships, and were looking forward to moving on to our outdoor season, but a cold snap has slammed Austin, and it looks like our 1 pm Saturday match vs Vanderbilt will be inside at the Weller Indoor Tennis Center. That match will be our first SEC Conference dual match, and we are hoping for another great crowd to help us start conference play on a positive note! The good news it that the weather is supposed to warm back up on Sunday, and it should be very nice for our 1 pm Monday match with Ole Miss (outdoors at the Texas Tennis Center). We realize that 1 pm on Monday is not an ideal time for many of our fans, but the SEC has assigned us this time, so we really do not have a say in the matter.

As you may know, we wrapped up a long weekend in Dallas with 4-1 wins over #14 Texas A&M (recap) and #5 Virginia (recap), before dropping a nail biter to #1 Wake Forest. For all the details of our semifinal match please click on this recap. Timo Legout, on the strength of his outstanding play at #1 singles, has been named SEC Men's Tennis Athlete of the Week! The all tournament team should be released tomorrow, but I expect that Timo, Pierre-Yves Bailly, and Oliver Ojakaar (all undefeated in singles) will be recognized.

I'll be in touch again just before the Vanderbilt match with a final preview. Until then, have a great rest of your week, and Hook'em!

Sincerely,

Bruce Berque

Hi UT Tennis Fan,

I hope you had a great week! We play our first SEC Conference match tomorrow (Saturday) at 1 pm, against Vanderbilt at the Weller Indoor Tennis Center. Vanderbilt has a strong team, and we expect a very good match. Here is a full preview. We had over 600 fans last time we played at Weller (against TCU), and it was a big boost to our team. If you are in town, I hope you will plan on being there again! If you can't make it, you will be able to follow along via the live scoring and video streaming links on the preview.

After the Vanderbilt match, we are expecting the weather to warm up quickly. So it looks like a sure thing that we will be back outside at the Texas Tennis Center to take on Ole Miss on Monday at 1 pm. I realize that is a tough time, but we encourage you to come out to support if you can. 

 

Sincerely,

Bruce Berque

Just read in another board that this might be Timo's only year of eligibility. I also read a comment in Instagram after the recent comment that Texas is going to need help come next year.

 

Any truth to Timo's eligibility?

Hi UT Tennis Fan,

We capped off a successful weekend of SEC play yesterday, by picking up a 4-1 win over Auburn at the Texas Tennis Center in front of a very good crowd. Please click on this press release for all the details. We are now 14-2 for the season, and 5-0 in the SEC. Our next match will be this Tuesday evening at 5:30 pm against TCU in Ft. Worth. We beat TCU 4-1 at the Weller Indoor Tennis Center about a month ago, but we know that this next meeting will be a big challenge. This will be the 10th time we have played TCU in the last 3 years; we are 5-4 in the first 9. If you are able to make it we would love to see some friendly faces and burnt orange in the stands!

After the trip to Ft. Worth, we will be back at home on this coming Sunday, March 16 at 12 pm to take on Alabama at the Texas Tennis Center. We have only 3 more regular season home matches. We hope you will mark your calendars for all three, and plan on being there, and on bringing your friends. This year's team is once again a special one. Your support means more to them than you may realize!

Have a great week, and Hook'em! 

Sincerely,

Bruce Berque

Hi UT Tennis Fan,

We picked up another SEC win yesterday, with a 4-0 decision over Alabama at the Texas Tennis Center. We played a very good match in doubles and singles to bring our record for the year to 15-3 (6-0 in the SEC). Please click here for all the details of yesterday's win. We will hit the road this coming weekend for matches against Arkansas on Friday and LSU on Sunday. Then it is back to Austin and the TTC for a big weekend (March 28 at 6 pm vs Kentucky, and March 30 at 12 pm vs South Carolina). Those will be the last two regular season matches of the year, and Sunday's match against South Carolina will be senior day for Pierre-Yves Bailly. We are expecting several alumni of the program to be back in town, and I'm sure you will enjoy seeing them. If you will be in town, please mark your calendars and plan on joining us. We will need all the help we can get against Kentucky and South Carolina, two of the better SEC teams, as we continue to compete for an SEC title!

Have a great week, and Hook'em! 

Sincerely,

Bruce Berque
