Theo and Alex haven't played well in the last two matches. Alex may be better further down the singles lineup, but at 2 he struggled Friday for sure. Tiago was seen changing his serve motion between doubles beat down and singles Friday night - that should tell you all you need to know.

Maybe try Molder at 3 and move everyone down a line from there.

Not a terrible idea. Molder is playing well. He dismantled Braswell (what an odd dude) Friday night in Austin

I think line 1 will always be a toss up. Probably line 2 also. Frusina is confusing to watch because he will drop the first set 6-0, not look remotely competitive, and then win the second set. Didn't realize he's a sophomore; Kholo and Lathan a junior...and Markus is young. Theo a sophomore. Very young team!

All 3 lines played fantastic doubles yesterday. Those match points lines 2 and 3 played were incredible.

Nice win by Theo Papamalamis over No. 9 Aidan Kim last night. I asked one of the OSU players and he said it was their spring break and they came here on Monday.

yes, bummer of a loss, but theo needed that win. great for his confidence moving forward for sure. as well as our doubles pairings played v LSU, lines 1 and 2 just did not show up yesterday. line 3 was playing well, and this pairing of markus and lathan is fun to watch. ohio state is a great team - really hope one day we can take one of those top 3-4 down. seems to be our kryptonite.

I think Markus and Lathan were up 5-2 40-30 just one point away from winning at 3 doubles when the doubles ended. That 3 Ohio St. doubles team took their time letting court 1 finish to conclude the doubles play so they wouldn't take a loss.

Also of note. Mississippi St. (who is ranked #6) was already here and practicing on the courts behind the grandstand during our match with Ohio St.

Great doubles battle on all 3 courts. Aggies win lines 2 and 3. Lead MissSt 1-0

That doubles point was amazing. It looked like a team was in control on all three courts and it totally flipped with the other team that looked buried making a huge comeback and having the momentum. The only spot where the team was able to hold on was line three with Markus and Lathan. Alex and Kholo had an amazing comeback on two. They were either down 1-5 or 2-5 and came back to win in a tiebreaker.

For anyone there last night against MS St., there was a bigger and taller young guy with our team watching the matches in an Aggie shirt. He was not a current player and I didn't recognize him as a former player. He was very engaged and up and down the stands watching the matches. Even some of our players would reciprocate his positive vibes directly back to him. Anyone know who he is?

Was it Brayden Michna? He was on the team and had to medically retire. He's roommates with some of the guys

I don't think so. I think this guy was European. My wife says he also appeared to be with two European fitness models, if that helps.

Is there some history between us and UT? Pretty animated discussion by UT with the chair during No. 2 doubles and during set 2 of No. 6 singles.

@mull I think it's like that at every single SEC match.

Really have to give some props to Lathan. That kid has come in and just anchored and stabilized line 3 doubles and he's playing some excellent singles. The epitome of "take the opportunity that you're given and fight for your spot". He's fun to watch play.

Good day for everyone all around!

Best part is that he never gets upset after losing a point. Could make the easiest mistake, just shakes his head and moves on. He's told me it's not worth getting upset over one ball. One ball never is the reason for a win or loss. He gets that.

He's making the most of his playing time! Love to see it!

I'm over here wondering why he hasn't been in the lineup sooner?!?!

Sometimes the players who make the money get in over the blue collar ones. He's kept his head down for 3 years and worked for this time. I doubt he's out of the lineup again.

Very true. I'm just happy he's getting the chance to prove himself!

Congrats to the men on another good win! Gig'em! Wish we could get this forum hopping like the women's. Just keep winning! It'll happen.

Lost the doubles point and won lines 1, 3, 4, and 6. Match was clinched at 4-2. Finished out line 2 and Kholo dropped the match in the 3rd.

Winning is hard in the SEC. Especially on the road! Gig'em!
