Andrew Lutschaunig and James Trotter fought off a tough Texas duo to take both sets of the NCAA Men's Tennis Doubles finals and become national champions, as Lutschaunig smashed home an ace to end the match 6-4, 6-4 in Orlando, FL on Saturday.
The defining moment of the match came in the second set, as the Buckeyes broke Texas' serve with some incredible footwork:

This was the second consecutive season that the Men's Doubles final came down to a Texas/Ohio State matchup, and Lutschaunig and Trotter become just the second men's duo to take home a championship, after Chase Buchanan and Blaz Rola won it in 2012.
