TULSA, Okla. – The Texas A&M men’s tennis team’s eight competitors concluded their run at the ITA All-American Championships Tuesday night at the Case Tennis Center with nearly 20 victories through the pre-qualifying and qualifying rounds.
Aggie junior JC Roddick (5-1) worked his way from pre-qualifying to the qualifying second round with five victories where he won in straight sets over all of his opponents. Roddick would eventually fall in the qualifying second round to TCU’s Lui Maxted. Sophomore newcomer Togan Tokac also advanced to qualifying after starting the tournament in the pre-qualifying stage. Tokac went 4-1 and lost in the first round of qualifying in a three-set thriller to Petar Jovanovic of Mississippi State.
Junior Giulio Perego, the lone Aggie to start the tournament in qualifying, went 2-1 in his bracket but fell in the third round to end his week. Freshman Brayden Michna (3-1) appeared in his first tournament as an Aggie and earned three wins before falling in the fourth round of pre-qualifying. Junior Luke Casper also picked up a victory in the first round of pre-qualifying, going 1-1 at ITAs.
A&M’s Perego and Tokac lost in the qualifying third round of doubles play to Oklahoma’s Sebastien Collard and Ronnie Hohmann. The duo posted a 2-1 record with both of their victories coming in tie-breaking fashion.
The Maroon & White return to play Thursday, Oct. 19 at the TCU’s Friedman Tennis Center for the ITA Texas Regional.
