I don't think the men's tennis team has a chance to win it all. Undone by injuries to its top 2 players.
But there was magic at the new tennis facility on Friday night. Stanford was playing #3 ranked (and defending national champ) Wake Forest. The Cardinal lost the doubles point and then 2 quick singles matches to face a 0-3 deficit. Then team MVP Alex Razeghi (15-1 in dual matches) won two tiebreakers to clinch Stanford's first point. Alex Chang lost the first set, then came back to win 6-4 in the 3rd. Hudson Rivera evened the match at #3 singles.
However Jagger Leach at #6 lost on his serve and was down 2-5 in the 3rd set. Then this happened. If you want to see why Stanford sports can be special, watch the rest of the match. Maybe you will get as fired up as the crowd was.
