Regional tennis play continues

The Iowa men’s tennis team continued play at the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Regional tournament over the weekend in Tulsa, Okla.

Sophomore Tom Mroziewicz and senior Tommy McGeorge advanced to the third round in the qualifying bracket on Oct. 22. Mroziewicz ousted Tulsa’s Albert Jou in straight sets, and McGeorge defeated St. Louis’ P.J. Hendrie, also in straight sets.

McGeorge continued to play well, winning in the first round of the main draw. However, Mroziewicz fell in the round of 64 to Oklahoma State’s Oleksandr Nedovysov (6-3, 6-2).

McGeorge eventually lost in the second round of the singles main draw but advanced to the quarterfinals of the doubles main draw alongside Mroziewicz. The pair fell to Christopher Aumueller and Benedikt Lindheim from Nebraska.

Of the five Hawkeyes competing in the back draw portion of the competition, senior Reinoud Haal, junior Nikita Zotov, and sophomore Marc Bruche each won two singles matches, and they will continue play today.

The tournament will run through today, with the back draw matches continuing.
