After dominating the #1 seed Texas Longhorns in the semifinals yesterday, the Virginia Cavaliers men’s tennis team won its second consecutive NCAA Championship this afternoon by toppling the #3 Ohio State Buckeyes, 4-0.
Against Ohio State, Virginia won the doubles point with wins from the pairing of Chris Rodesch and Jeffrey von der Schulenberg (who won 6-2) and the duo of Inaki Montes and William Woodall (6-3). That left the ‘Hoos just three singles points away from clinching overall victory.
Von der Schulenberg made quick work of his singles match versus Ohio State’s JJ Tracy, winning the first set 6-2 and then the second 6-1.
