Wisconsin will take on Harvard and San Diego to close non-conference slate
MADISON, Wis. — The Wisconsin men's tennis team is set for a trip to San Diego, Calif., for a pair of weekday non-conference matches over spring break. Wisconsin will play Harvard on Tuesday, March 15, and the University of San Diego on Thursday, March 17.
1. All We Do is Clinch: For the third time this season, the Badgers have been on the winning end of a close match with a 4-3 win over Western Michigan on March 5. Senior Sebastian Vile grabbed that valuable fourth point, defeating the Broncos' Benjamin George 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 under pressure. Vile was also in charge of clinching the Badgers' 4-3 win over Drake in early February, while sophomore Tim Dzhurinskiy was responsible for claiming the winning point to take down DePaul, 4-3, on Jan. 22.
2. Badgers in ITA Rankings: Wisconsin has claimed consecutive top-75 rankings in the latest ITA polls. The week of March 2, the Badgers jumped into the ranks at No. 63 riding off a 5-2 win over the then-No. 42 Oregon Ducks. In the most recent update, Wisconsin has climbed up to the No. 59 spot after last weekend's win over Western Michigan.
3. Know the Opponents: Harvard is 8-2 on the season with its only losses coming to USC and Virginia on the road. In the most recent ITA rankings, the Crimson ranked No. 13 overall as a team, with three of their players ranking in the top 30 in singles: No. 23 Henry Schulenburg, No. 29 Brian Shi and No. 35 Harris Walker. Harvard also holds the No. 20-ranked doubles duo of Daniel Milavsky and Shi.
No. 26-ranked San Diego is 7-2 on the season with losses to No. 16 Arizona, 5-2, and No. 41 SMU, 4-3. The Toreros have the No. 6-ranked singles player on their roster in August Holmgren and the No. 66-ranked doubles team consisting of Holmgren and Guilherme Osorio.
