NORFOLK, Va. – The Old Dominion men's tennis team will finish the regular season on Saturday with a 1 p.m. start against William & Mary.
Saturday will be Senior Day as the men will recognize Yevhen Sirous and Oliver Nolan prior to the start of the match.
"Yevhen and Oliver made a tremendous impact on our program in their short times with us," said ODU Head Coach Dominik Mueller. "Their leadership and maturity helped our team this year to overcome adversity. They will be Monarchs for life, and I am very happy they will be around our program next year as our student coaches to finish their master degrees."
Old Dominion (12-8) hits the courts again after a tough 4-1 loss on Thursday at No. 29 VCU. The Monarchs won the doubles point with wins at the two and three spots of the lineup. Francois Le Tallec and Oliver Tobisch got the first win at number three with a 6-3 decision over Joaquim Almeida and Matisse Bobichon. ODU took the team point with a 6-2 win at number two by Oliver Nolan and Codie van Schalkwyk over Rayane Stable and Inigo Torre Martin.
William & Mary (10-6) heads to Norfolk after falling 4-2 to UTSA on April 2. This is a rematch of an ODU 4-1 victory on February 16 in Williamsburg. Harrison Brown leads the Tribe this spring in singles with a 10-4 record, while Sebastien Quiros and Joseph Brailovsky are 9-5. In doubles, the duo of Brailovsky and Chen Ruo are 12-3, while George Davis and Brown are 11-4.
ODU will next see action in the Conference USA Championships that will be held at the Folkes-Stevens Tennis Center starting on April 22-24.
