The Division III ITA Men's Indoor was this weekend at Gustavus Adolphus in Minnesota and the No. 2 seed, Emory University, defeated top seed Washington University 6-3 to take the title. The ITA tournament website with complete scores and draws is here.

In Division I men's tennis, No. 31 Kentucky went into Knoxville Saturday and beat the fourth-ranked Volunteers 4-2, winning the doubles point and getting wins from No. 1 (Bruno Agostinelli), No. 3 (Eric Quigley), and No. 5 (Alex Musialek). Kentucky gave Mississippi all it could handle during the Kick-off Weekend, demonstrating they can play with the SEC's best, although this was not a match that will count in the conference standings. The Wildcats' record is now 7-2, with the losses to Virginia and Ole Miss. For the complete account, see the Kentucky website.
A top men's team struggling right now is Tulsa, who was beaten by No. 39 TCU yesterday in Tulsa. TCU is on probation for another year, but they extended Texas A & M before losing 4-3 on Wednesday, so they are not a team to be taken lightly. The Tulsa website has the account of yesterday's match here.
In a clash between two top four programs today on the women's side, No. 1 Northwestern got by No. 4 Georgia Tech 4-2 in a just completed match.
In the SMASH Junior Cup, Alison Riske and Kristie Ahn will play Monday for the qualifying wild card into the Family Circle Cup in April. Riske was initially a No. 5 seed, and I'm not sure what happened exactly, but she was moved up to the No. 4 seed, the draw was redone, and she and Ahn fell in opposite halves, instead of the same quarter, where they were previously. Riske barely got by Shelby Rogers in the semifinals, needing a third set tiebreaker to advance. Ahn was a subject of this profile prior to the start of the tournament by the Charleston Post and Courier's James Beck. For complete results, see the TennisLink site.
