Division 3 tennis is in full swing, and it looks like the central region has played a bunch of matches. With that, I want to provide my thoughts on how the central region teams I cover have performed. As we always say, it’s a long season, so you can’t predict much from early season results, but…
I know you don’t usually get grades over Spring Break, but let’s be honest, we all know none of these teams are actually on Spring Break, and we have only used this monicker to lightly poke fun at Walla Walla for being a potentially sub-optimal spring break destination. On to the grades. Here are the…
D3W: Welcome to the Spring Break Walla Walla preview, and boy do we have a doozy of a quad lined up for you this year. This is undoubtedly the best quartet since the very first (featuring CMS, Trinity, and a still-relevant UC Santa Cruz), and it’s nice to see some early interregional action with Gustavus…
This is my season preview and the 2nd Annual Top 20 Teams of the Past Five Years. For those who want to reference last year’s article, the link is here: http://www.division3tennis.com/7148-2/ The rules of this are pretty simple. You need to be ranked in all five of the seasons examined and you need to have…
Coach: Tommy Valentini, 8th Season Location: St. Peter, Minnesota Preseason ITA Ranking: 20 Blog Power Ranking: 20 Twitter Handle: @GACMensTennis Overview I’ve covered a lot of teams from the “central” side of the region, so I’m glad I get to break the monotony by previewing a team on the “midwest” side. First, a quick shout out to Gustavus…
They said we were dead. They said we couldn’t do it anymore. But here we are, giving you the inaugural power rankings of 2017. Not only that, we’re giving you a bit of new flavor this year. We have Regional AS and NEC on board, and we have a new writer in D3Midwest as well.…
Prediction time, boys and girls. Everybody’s favorite chance to point at us and laugh after our picks go horribly awry. You can see that there’s a pretty even split towards the top of the singles picks, with 4 of the 8 contestants/teams being picked to win by different writers in both the singles and the…
SMALL COLLEGE NATIONALS SINGLES PREVIEW Today, there’s this thing called Small College Nationals happening at 10:30AM PT from somewhere in Arizona. Welcome to the desert, folks. Let’s hope that this is real life and not an elaborate theme park for rich people (Westworld Reference! Hit me up on twitter to discuss the newest HBO show,…
Wow! What an all-around incredible ITA weekend throughout the country. We witnessed the upsets, the drama, the tears (I really hope nobody cried), and of course, the hooking. But, I’ll only be talking about one of those four things (the tears…just kidding). The format of this recap is going to be a bit different than…
The Central ITA Regional Championships were fun to cover last week, but my name is not d3MIDWEST10s for nothing! The Midwest ITA Regional Championships are where all the fun is at. While there are feasibly three or four players that could win this tournament, I love getting to cover these teams. If you haven’t looked…
