Hosting the NCAA singles and doubles championships for the first time since 2015, Baylor men’s tennis sophomore Devin Badenhorst set the tone for the week, knocking off NC State junior Martin Borisiouk 6-4, 7-6 (7) in the first round at the Hurd Tennis Center on Monday. Senior Oskar Brostrom Poulsen’s first round match was highlighted by a between the legs shot, but he fell to Princeton junior Fnu Nidunjianzan in three sets, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3.

The inaugural fall tournament opened on Tuesday with 64 men and women competing in the first round of the singles portion of the champions.
