Tulane Men’s Tennis Concludes Competition at the CBB Invitational
Nov 7, 2021 | Men's Tennis
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The Tulane University men's tennis team finished play at the CBB Invitational earning a pair of singles draw victories as well as a doubles draw win.
"We had a pretty solid weekend overall at the CCB Invite," head coach Mark Booras said. "It was nice to see guys turn things around from last weekend to get a bunch of wins altogether and win a few individual draws as well. The doubles got a little better this weekend, but we still need to completely embrace some basic tactics if we want to be successful in doubles in the spring matches."
Fynn Kuenkler and Luka Petrovic each won the final in their individual draws with Petrovic's victory coming over Green Wave teammate Luc Hoeijmans. The duo of Alex Bancila and Rafael de Alba delivered the Olive and Blue a doubles draw win on the weekend as well.
Tulane will be back in action next weekend, Nov. 12-14, for the 2021 ITA Fall Circuit hosted by the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
