The Tennessee men’s tennis team closed out its stay at the ITA Indoor Championships with a 4-2 victory over No. 5 Texas in Champaign, Illinois.
The No. 10 Volunteers picked up its first win over the Longhorns in more than a decade. UT last defeated Texas 11 years ago in a long-running series that dates back to 1974.
The Vols clinched the doubles point as duo Martim Prata and Johannus Monday and Adam Walton and Pat Harper each rolled to 6-2 victories.
Monday, Luca Wiedenmann and Andrew Rogers all posted wins in singles.
Wiedenmann knocked off Texas’ Chih Chi Huang, 6-1, 2-6, 7-5, to clinch the dual match victory for Tennessee (10-1).
Rogers downed Texas’ Evin McDonald, 7-6 (4), 6-3.
Monday outlasted Eliot Spizzirri, 7-6 (4), 6-4.
The win over Texas (8-3) came one day after the Vols dropped its first dual match of the season, losing to No. 2 North Carolina, 4-2, on Saturday.
