Men's tennis continues climb in rankings

SPIUMT

IU climbed to the No. 34 spot in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association rankings Tuesday after its 4-3 victory against rival Purdue last weekend.

After losing the doubles point in the early stage of the match, the Hoosiers came back by winning four of its six singles matchups against the Boilermakers.

The ITA placed IU as the No. 37 team last week after upsetting No. 32 Washington on the road.

Junior doubles pair Raheel Manji and Keivon Tabrizi went up to the No. 49 spot in the doubles rankings after being placed at No. 50 in the Feb. 21 rankings, despite Manji missing the last three matches due to a lower leg injury.

Sophomore Antonio Cembellin dropped out of the top-125 singles rankings even after winning his singles matchup against Purdue this weekend at position one in straight sets.

IU will travel to San Diego during spring break to get outdoor practice time and will have its only matchup of the break against Texas Tech in San Diego on March 16.

The Red Raiders are unranked but have one ranked singles player in No. 63 Jolan Cailleau and a ranked doubles team, No. 53 Connor Curry and Ronit Bisht.
