Hi UT Tennis Fan,
Greetings from Kalamazoo, Michigan, where Assistant Coach Ryan Lipman and I are busy looking for the next generation of Longhorns! Speaking of new coaches, last week we welcomed our 2nd Assistant Coach to the team. Nick Beaty comes to us from the University of Michigan, where he was a 3 time team captain. Nick has already been on the court with Cleeve Harper and Evin McDonald while Ryan and I are out recruiting, As you can see from this press release, Nick had an outstanding career at the University of Michigan, and we know he will make a great contribution on the 40 acreas as well.
Last week, Micah and Jonah Braswell competed in the Decatur, IL $25k futures event: Micah lost in the 2nd round to the eventual champion, while Jonah had a great run to the semifinals before losing a tough 3 set match. They also paired together in doubles, played a great match, but lost in a decisive tie breaker to the eventual champions. Meanwhile in Lexington, Kentucky Eliot Spizzirri played an ATP $80k Challenger event. He beat Christian Harrison in the first round, and lost to eventual champion Stevie Johnson in the 2nd round (had set point to win the 2nd set). In doubles Eliot paired with Tyler Zink to win the title, his first Challenger title in singles or doubles (beating another Longhorn, George Goldhoff, in the final). George has also had a great run in doubles lately. Speaking of former Longhorns on the ATP doubles tour, 2015 NCAA Doubles Champion (with partner Soren Hess-Olesen) Lloyd Glasspool reached the semifinals in the ATP 500 event in Washington D.C., and will be competing at the Rogers Cup in Canada this week. Also this week, Eliot will play Liam Broady today in the Cary, North Carolina Challenger, while in Belgium Pierre-Yves Bailly begins play today in a $15k futures event. Lucas Brown will play his 4th round match in Kalamazoo today, and both he and freshman Rahul Sachdev are still alive in doubles (with different partners) as well. Next week Cleeve Harper will play a Challenger in Canada, Pierre will play another futures in Belgium, and the rest of the guys will get ready to make their way back to Austin for what promises to be another exciting year for UT Men's Tennis!
Until next time, Hook'em!
Sincerely,
Bruce Berque
