UVa Men’s Tennis Won the NCAA Title

After years of getting painstakingly close to a title, the UVa Men’s tennis team finally won its first championship today in dramatic fashion.  With the title match tied 3-3 against UCLA, the Wahoos were down to their final point in the third and final set, when sophomore Mitchell Frank rallied to win four straight games to clinch the title. The victory was Virginia’s 30^th to cap off an undefeated season.  Here are some quick stats on the Cavaliers historic season and recent run of dominance.
