San Antonio – The Tiger men's tennis team
has enjoyed a stellar ITA Regional Tournament so far, and Trinity
is assured to advance in both singles and doubles as only Tiger
players are left in contention for the championships.
Sunday's "A" Singles semifinals of the
ITA/USTA Division III Men's Tennis Southwest Region
Championships will be an all Trinity matchup.
Starting at 8 a.m. at Delavan Tennis Stadium, top seed Max Frey
meets No. 4 Cory Kowal, and Greg Haugen takes on second-seeded
Bobby Cocanougher. The championship match is slated for 11 a.m.
Frey beat seventh-seeded Adam Chirhart of UT-Tyler 6-1, 7-6 (5)
in Saturday's quarterfinals, and Kowal was a 6-3, 6-2 winner
over teammate Ben Carroll. Haugen upset the defending champion and
No. 3 seed, Trinity's Erick DelaFuente, 6-1, 6-2. Cocanougher
defeated 13th-seeded Daniel Olivares of McMurry 7-5, 6-1.
The "A" Doubles championship match, at 2 p.m., will
also be a Trinity show. Top seeds Cocanougher and Kowal, the 2010
NCAA finalists, will play the No. 2 team of DelaFuente and
Frey.
The main-draw singles and doubles champions advance to the National
Small College Championships Oct. 10-13 at Mobile, Ala.
