Looking to protect home turf as the last Baylor players standing, No. 2-seeded men’s tennis duo seniors Marko Miladinovic and Oskar Brostrom Poulsen put on a show in front of the friendly Hurd Tennis Center crowd despite dropping their Sweet 16 match, 7-6(7), 4-6, 0-1(5), during the third day of the NCAA individual championships Thursday.
After a comeback win to open their doubles tournament on Wednesday, head coach Michael Woodson encouraged Brostrom Poulsen and Miladinovic to keep fighting against the Texas duo of Timo Legout and Lucas Brown. The Baylor duo started training for the event on June 22 and were the last Bears standing heading into Thursday.
