Micevski reaches singles title match, Woolley/Little do same in doubles
PALM SPRINGS, Calif. - Utah Men's Tennis saw student-athletes advance to the finals of both the singles and doubles tournaments at the National Collegiate Tennis Classic on Sunday. However, the Utes could not come home with any silverware.
Individually, David Micevski rolled through a quarterfinal against Pepperdine's Gabriel Sidney, 6-4, 6-3 and then rallied past fellow Wave Pedro Iamachkine in three sets. Micevski could not beat a third PU player in the final, falling to Stefan Menichella.
In the consolation bracket, Joe Woolley and Egbert Weverink both advanced but Pepperdine's Guilherme Handlich defeated both Utes in the quarterfinals and semifinals respectively.
In doubles play, Woolley and fellow Brit Dan Little rolled through teams from Boise State San Francisco and Pepperdine to reach the finals. However, they narrowly missed out on a title to the Van Slyke/Menichella duo from UP, 6-4. The other Utah teams of Weverink/Micevski and McGuiness/Shaniyan were knocked in their first matches of the day during the Round of 16.
Utah opens play at the Eccles Tennis Center this coming Saturday vs. Idaho State (11 a.m.) and Weber State (4 p.m.)
