KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee men's tennis team is hosting the ITA Ohio Valley Regional Championships for the third consecutive year at Goodfriend Tennis Center and Knoxville Racquet Club.
The 128-player singles and 64-team doubles tournament runs Thursday through Monday with first-round doubles starting at 8 a.m. Thursday. Admission is free to all sessions.
The singles and doubles champions will advance to the ITA National Fall Championships from Nov. 1-5 in Indian Wells, California.
TOURNAMENT SITES: Tournament matches will be played indoors at Goodfriend Tennis Center and Knoxville Racquet Club. Starting Sunday, all matches will be played at Goodfriend Tennis Center.
SPECTATOR PARKING: Because of ongoing construction to on-campus housing surrounding Goodfriend Tennis Center, spectator parking will be located in lot SC-40, which is located across Cumberland Avenue from the University Commons shopping center. There will be a shuttle running for spectators.
SEEDED PLAYERS: Three Vols are seeded in the singles draw, led by junior Timo Stodder, who is seeded second. He is ranked 17th nationally and is 4-2 to start the fall season. Sophomore Scott Jones is seeded 11th and has three nationally ranked wins already this fall. Freshman Adam Walton is seeded 20th. In his first collegiate tournament last month, he scored two ranked victories.
VOL CHAMPIONS AT THE OHIO VALLEY REGIONAL: Since joining the ITA Ohio Valley Region in the 2009 regional realignment, Tennessee has won one singles title (Hunter Reese, 2013) and four doubles titles (Boris Conkic/Rhyne Williams, 2009; Mikelis Libietis/Hunter Reese, 2011; Mikelis Libietis/John Collins, 2012; Jack Schipanski/Luis Valero, 2016).
HOSTS AGAIN: Since expanding from four to six courts in 2011, Tennessee has hosted the men's regional five times.
