Memphis Menโs Tennis Team Gears Up for CUSA Championships!
Hey there, tennis fans! The vibrant city of Memphis is buzzing with excitement as the University of Memphis Menโs Tennis Team prepares for the upcoming CUSA Championships. Mark your calendars for April 16-19, because this year’s event will be hosted by Liberty in the picturesque Lynchburg, Virginia. This is the moment our Tigers have been working hard for!
Current Standing and Recent Competitions
Currently holding a rank of 57, the Memphis menโs tennis team has made a splash this season with an impressive record of 12 wins and 4 losses. The team has seen some intense competition recently, with their latest match on April 12, 2025. They faced off against the formidable Florida Atlantic University (FAU), which currently boasts an impressive ranking of 26 and a flawless record of 15-0!
The clash with FAU proved to be a tough battle for Memphis. The match concluded with a score of 4-1 in favor of FAU, marking a significant challenge for our athletes. It was a hard-fought contest, and our own Valery Gynina shone brightly by securing the only point for Memphis in this matchup. Gynina displayed exceptional skill in his singles match, finishing with a score of 6-4, 0-6, 6-1 at the No. 3 singles position.
Doubles Play Dilemma
However, the doubles round didn’t quite go as planned. Memphis faced a tough opponent, and unfortunately, they lost all three doubles matches, giving FAU a 1-0 lead right from the get-go. This early setback set the tone for the match, and despite Gyninaโs subsequent victory, FAU quickly expanded their lead to 2-0. Memphis showed some resilienceโGyninaโs victory brought them within striking distance at 2-1, but FAU’s powerhouses clinched the match by winning at the Nos. 1 and 5 singles.
A Look Ahead
As the team heads into the CUSA Championships, theyโre clearly driven to shake off the recent disappointment and bring their A-game to Virginia.
