this can be a great year...Pumped cant wait to make it down for a match.
had a couple of bumps in the road early on especially indoors, but this is a very talented team, and if they all get it together they will be very dangerous for anyone in the country....tough swing through California, but Steve plays some of the best teams in America....nice to see the ranking....
I questioned some of the choices of the guys lineup this year, especially not playing junior. Hope they don't peak too early and have something left in the tank for nationals. This team could really make a run. I hope they actually do this year, unlike years in the past when I've said that.

It was awesome seeing them have such a great week against two top 10 teams. Hopefully they carry the momentum to Cali this week!
Will this program remain highly ranked for years to come? Or is this a one year wonder type of team?
Just like every year in college tennis, you're always nervous if you can replace that #1 guy...Austin came in and took over nicely for CP...Will Junior be the next guy in line?
Did anyone catch the doubles scores against california? Right now the single scores are #1 3-6, 3-4; #2 6-2, 2nd set score is messed up (shows it as 6-1 but they are still playing); #3 6-2, 2-1; #4 6-6; #5 6-4, 1-2; #6 6-4, 3-0. So things are looking pretty good at the moment regardless of the doubles outcome. Hopefully we can finish strong.
To clear some things up, the Cal site offers streaming video, pretty good quality too, but doesn't give the scores of all the courts or the overall scores, so you have to check each individual court. Austin lost 3-6, 4-6; Jeff ended up winning 6-2, 6-2; Griggy (#3)6-2, 5-3 ; Klegou (#4) up 2-0 in the 2nd, the first set just shows 6-6; Alberto (#5)6-4, 5-4; Angus (#6) won 6-4, 6-1
Alberto won 6-4, 6-4 (4-1 or 3-2 overall depending on doubles) Klegou won the first 7-6 and now 3-2 in the 2nd. Griggy just went up 6-5 in the 2nd
Griggy lost the 2nd set 6-7(5). Klegou is up 5-4 in the 2nd.
Thanks nixter! I forgot about the twitter updates. Great match Ags!
The Aggies are in the middle of one heck of a run...good job everyone involved.
Wow, a 6-1 win at a top 10 team. Impressive!

The team should have a lot of depth with players like niall angus and Junior Ore, also they have Jordan Szabo and Jackson Winthrow to come in next season.
Denton/McKinley have shown that they can recruit & develop great players. It is going to take a good break - like that kid that chose UVA over us choosing us instead, but we are within striking distance - maybe one great player a way from a final four.
I can't remember a more impressive three match stretch. Great job by the players and coaches.

Love it
Aggie Men lose the doubles pt to Pepperdine
Not looking real great lost 3 of 6 first sets, Griggy did come back to split though.
This ones going to come down to the wire. Griggi and Hoover are trying to battle back, Klegou forced a third set, Bautista match going to third set. Ags up 2-1, but down 5-4 in third set of Griggi match and Hoover down 1 set.
Never mind Griggi just lost 2-2 coming down to courts 4-6 starting third sets with Klegou and Bautista and hoover trailing 6-7 but ahead in this set 5-4.
Hoover also forced a third set Gou up 3-2 in third, Bautista down 4-2, and Hoover just starting.
lineup on the site is wrong, 1-4 are right, 5 is Berto, 6 is Angus
Guys lost 4-3, Berto lost in the third, then Gou won his.
Tough loss for the guys, but what a run it's been.
