Wow. How long did it take you to put that together? Amazing. Thank you for all the info.

Dito. If it wasn't for TopDawg I wouldn't be keeping up with all this. Great stuff. Makes it easier to be a total tennis fan.

TopDawg, Have you checked out the high school that the Horizon League is using to host their tournament. Amazing facility with 30 courts and 2 quick start courts.

Also, if you go to the website, they have a challenge ladder with 458 rec players competing.

Well I hadn't checked it out but just did, that is pretty impressive having that many courts. We'll let the Horizon keep their bid.

31 Automatic Qualifiers - 16 already in and 15 to be decided this weekend

15 TBD:
America East - winner will be unranked
Big West - #1 seed Cal Poly is ranked #63
Horizon - winner will be unranked
Metro Atlantic - winner will be unranked
Mid American - winner will be unranked
Missouri Valley - #1 seed Drake is ranked #48
Mountain West - #1 seed Boise State is ranked #38
Patriot - winner will be unranked
Southland - winner will be unranked
Summit - winner will be unranked
WAC - #1 seed Fresno State is ranked #33
Big 10, Big 12, Pac12, & WCC winners will be ranked in top 25

Based off this the ranking cutoff to make the NCAAs will be 45 because 19 automatic qualies will be ranked below 45. This is assuming Fresno State and Boise State win their conference. If neither wins that will push the cutoff to 43. Northwestern, UNC-Wilmington, and Virginia Tech are sitting on the bubble and Northwestern is the only one of those 3 still playing.

Right you are - not sure what score I was looking at. I think I saw that the #3 seed won and was assuming Santa Clara was seeded there.

LiveStats/Video

A&M will upset Oklahoma

They will have to win 4 singles matches. Not likely.

Oklahoma survives the dogfight, winning 4-1 to move on the final.

A fight almost broke out after th OU/A&M match concluded. Klegou was viciously angry, screamed curse words and pounded the back wall with his racket after he was up 7-6 in the 2nd set breaker before the match endede because OU clinched. Paval called a ball that was well in out on match point, ref did not over-rule because he had just done so on a couple points before that. Then at 6-7 Paval tossed the ball up twice on his serve and caught it, delaying. Some pushing after the shake off hands, couldn't see too well, looked like an OU assistant got involved.

Gotta love college tennis. What a classy sport. :)

Unreal match between Baylor and Texas Tech coming down to the wire right now.
