    Stanford Men

    Imho the best player on TCU is Vives. Uses the court so well. Simply outplayed Basing. Kang was beginning to figure out Maxted. Banerjee played Pinnington on even terms including an unreal angled tweener pass. But the Frogs were too good down low at the 5&6 spots which should have favored the...

    ITA Men's National Team Indoors

    Wonder if coaches will question bringing in too many transfers. The outcomes at Duke and Ohio State weren’t ideal. But it’s early to form an opinion. Plenty of time for those teams to integrate the pieces.

    Not true. Zheng went 2-1 with straight set Ws over Kim of Ohio State and Williams of Duke.

    Stanford Men

    Razeghi has been arguably the team mvp in the early going. Iirc he's lost just once until now while winning most of his matches easily in straight sets. So, he's gonna play unless he slips up. Godsick has been playing well too but has several DNFs. It's a numbers game at this point. Ideally...

    Acc to Gruskin the 2017 team that had Geller, Fawcett etc and made the Indoor final was better. But this team’s probably next best. There have been better individual players in the recent past like Geller, Fery and Basavareddy but those teams didn’t come together like this one is. It’s early...

    Stanford Men

    Great to see Kang back playing singles again. Once he gets going the Card would have the luxury of playing HVDS at 4 which would make the bottom half of their lineup really a tough nut to crack. Still think Texas, Wake, UVA and TCU are the frontrunners. But beyond them the field is crowded.

    Stanford Men

    Agree HVDS has added veteran leadership. Banerjee has matured. Basing is healthy. But most importantly the Card have the 6th spot almost locked down with Razeghi. Also Kang’s laser forehand was looking great in doubles. They were trying to target his backhand but he was running around and...

    Stanford Men

    Was looking through Kang's pro record. He beat Ethan Quinn, Michael Zheng and Cannon Kingsley, all in the past year. That's two NCAA champs and a top order Buckeye. The Card need him back on court right now! They could ease him in and have him firing by the end of the season. Ofc, don't know...

    Stanford Men

    Hopefully Kang's active for Indoors. Even if Columbia (expected opponent) beats Stanford, there could be a couple of winnable matches for the Card in the back draw.

    Michigan State w/o Baris and Thanos lost 4-3 to Boise State. They need those two back in the lineup asap.

    Texas Buckeyes UVA Columbia SD Clemson FSU Not well thought out. Mostly going by gut feel.

    That win over Baris for Vukadin is gonna age really well. Great confidence booster for the Tigers and they can build on it. Can spring more surprises in ACC play.

    Really happy for you. That's a HUGE win. And I had said earlier Vukadin could hang with most #1s in the ACC. Ofc I didn't expect he'd best Baris. But there you go.

    Stanford Men

    Couldn't watch live. But Stanford won doubles at 2 & 3. And then won singles at 1, 3, 4. Again goes back to options the Card have to get to 4 wins. Shout out to HVDS who went 2-0 in both doubles and singles over the weekend. Also to Rivera who delivered in singles both days. Now they need Kang...

    Should be and will make a difference. Iirc he upset the 2 seed in Cleveland.

    Cal Bears

    Good win for Cal. Overbeck got a good win over Quan but the real surprise was Chang's gritty performance against Johnson. This Cal team is a dark horse for a good run at NCAAs.

    Colby has had some giant wins in his college career. He's a bit up and down but when he's up, look out!

    Stanford Men

    Card downed USC 4-2. Lost the doubles point again but played very well in singles winning 3, 4, 5 and 6. Must say the bottom of the lineup is coming together well. Gives Stanford multiple pathways to a win. Now if they can just win doubles. They switched up the pairings but still no success...

    Stanford Women Tennis

    Yu had a poor freshman fall and that pretty much consigned her to the bench. Not saying it was fair but just explaining how Forood was probably thinking. I think Yu was done with Stanford bc at the time she didn’t see a slot opening up for her until her junior year and even then with a troika of...

    Stanford Women Tennis

    To be fair to the Card (and Forood), no one could have predicted Yepifanova and Blokhina would be out. Had they been in the lineup, Stanford would have been formidable with Glozman, Ma, Yepifanova, Hui, Blokhina and Xu. This lineup could have been top 5. Instead now they could have trouble...

    Yes. Texas, A&M and Kentucky will play at SMU

    Stanford Men

    Stanford headed to Waco (Baylor site). Looks like they'll draw Columbia in the first round if one goes by rough seedings. The Card will be the sixth seed with Baylor and UCF below them taking on TCU and Ohio State. Columbia is likely to be the 3 seed. And Duke v San Diego will be the fourth...

    Big 10 Tennis

    Johnson went down pretty tamely (3&1) this past weekend to Theo Papamalamis the freshman at A&M who seems to be taking college tennis by storm. He also finaled at the Ithaca 25K and was a Wimby juniors semifinalist. But I hear you, Johnson, Quan and Bigun are a trifecta.

    ITA Kickoff Weekend 2025

    Good color. The Tigers appear to have promoted Gannon to the top line over Alemany which is interesting. High praise indeed for comparing anyone to Memphis and ATP legend Salisbury!

    Stanford Men

    In the pic he looks to be fit. Not in cast or such. Don't know what's up but it's something that kept him out of an all important kickoff weekend. Hopefully, he can come back soon. He's certainly in the Top 3 along with Banerjee and Basing. Kang had a terrific summer making finals and semis of...

    ITA Kickoff Weekend 2025

    John Parsons had raised a question about Arizona below their 1-2 punch of Colton Smith and Jay Friend. And that came home to roost. Will be interesting to see how they fare this season. And agree on MSU choosing to play in the TCU cluster. They had a golden opportunity to get to Indoors and...

    SEC Tennis

    Looking at this list, the SEC doesn't appear to be the hyper-competitive conference that it usually is. Curious to see how they shape up at Indoors and NCAAs. I could be wrong in that the conference has a history of getting better as the season progresses. But something says they aren't that...

    Stanford Men

    I believe the rankings reflect roster turnover. But I hear you. TCU played a close one against Baylor too if one were to look beyond the 4-1 scoreline. So, not entirely sure if this is early season form or a sign of how the season will go for them. That being said, the Card are once again...

    Lmao. Yeah, she definitely got schooled by Pegula. But there's a lotta daylight between WTA 118 and WTA 6! Lots to work on.
