I’m obviously making the assumption that my first round picks will be correct so based off those picks this is how I have the 2nd round playing out. The doubles records and stats are as of Thursday so if the guys win or lose a match on Friday the numbers would change.

Another action packed day of college tennis is in the books and it was the ACC giving us the 2 best matches of the day as Georgia Tech and North Carolina both pulled out 4-3 thrillers. I’m big fan of the schools that take the time to put an audio or video interview out on twitter shortly after the match finished.

TCU hadn’t beaten Texas since 1996 but that slump came to an end as TCU got it done 4-1. TCU started off by taking the doubles point with a 6-1 win at #2 (Trevor Johnson & Cameron Norrie) and 7-6(4) win at #3 (Guillermo Nuez & Hudson Blake) . It looked like TCU would take the point a bit easier but Texas’s #1 team of Soren Hess-Olesen and Lloyd Glasspool came back from 5-3 down to win 7-6(5) which made the match at #3 the decider. TCU kept the momentum flowing in singles by taking 4 opening...
