It feels strange to say that, despite having won four of the last seven NCAA titles, 2019 was a resurgence for the UVA Men’s Tennis team. That’s because 2018 was so bad considering this team’s expectations. Add to that, after head coach Brian Boland’s departure after the 2017 season, fans were left to wonder whether it was the program or the coach.
Fortunately for the Wahoos, second-year coach Andres Pedroso was able to right the ship rather quickly and get the Cavaliers back to the NCAA Tournament Quarterfinals and back to the NCAA Finals site, a place the Hoos have been accustomed to visiting over the last decade.
