Men's Tennis: #10 Stanford vs. #5 SC and #6 UCLA - ColoradoTree - 02-02-2018
I don't follow the men's team as closely as I do the women's team, for the simple reason they don't win as much, but this year looks promising. Starting the year ranked #13, the Cardinal men have climbed to #10 on the strength of winning their ITA Kick-Off "regional" at Berkeley, beating Oregon and #22 Tulane (who beat Cal in an upset) handily. That got them a spot in the national indoor championships in a couple of weeks in Seattle.
Up next are matches against #5 USC and #6 UCLA this weekend, both at Taube, thankfully. We play USC today at 3:00pm PT, and UCLA tomorrow at 12:00pm PT. I'm not overly optimistic (USC has 5 ranked singles players to our 1, and UCLA has 3, including the overall #1), but I'll be keeping an eye out. Live scoring and streaming available at http://streamingtennis.com/Cardinal/. If Stanford men's tennis is to return to the pinnacle of the sport it occupied before the 2000s, these are the tough matches you have to find a way to win.Â

Re: Men's Tennis: #10 Stanford vs. #5 SC and #6 UCLA - BostonCard - 02-02-2018
So far, looking pretty good. We took 4/6 of the first sets, hold the doubles point, and have won one match in singles so far.

Pretty dominant performance from Stanford as they will likely wrap this up 5-2 over USC. Fawcett has already clinched.

It's 5-1 with Wilczynski tied at 5-5 in the third set. We clinched before USC even went on the board.

Yes! Spent the day drinking, watching noir movies, and drinking. This is the news I wanted when I got home.Â

Kumars 6-3, 6-3 win at #3 singles was the only relatively routine one, too. The other five singles matches were absolute battles, as were the three doubles matches.
USC is *good,* too. To find a way to win in so many close matches says a lot about the character on this team. Im pumped about this.
No time to enjoy it, though. Have to turn right around and be great again on Sunday.
