No. 3 Texas Ends NCAA Tourney Run By Men's Tennis, 4-1

AUSTIN, Texas -- No. 37 Cornell put up a strong fight, but No. 3 Texas was too much in a 4-1 victory in the second round of the NCAA Tournament on Sunday afternoon at the Texas Tennis Center. The Big Red's season came to an end with a 16-8 record following its third straight season with a first round NCAA win. The Longhorns advanced to the Sweet 16 by advancing its record to 27-4.

After dropping 6-3 contests at No. 1 and No. 3 to a lineup full of ranked opponents, Cornell gave the home team all it could handle. Adit Sinha gained a point at No. 2 singles, pulling a big 6-2, 6-3 upset over No. 26 Sebastian Gorzny in his final collegiate match. Senior Jack McCarthy was also in control at No. 4 with a 7-5, 5-2 lead over No. 72 Jonah Braswell before Texas clinched the win. Senior Radu Papoe was heading to a second set tiebreaker against No. 1 Timo Legout when the match ended.

The Longhorns earned straight-sets wins at No. 5 and 6 after No. 54 Pierre-Yves Baily swept past Rodrigo Fernandes to up its advantage to 3-0 before Sinha completed the biggest ranked win of his career.
