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.…
Another week, another NE tournament to recap. And it only gets better from here, with next weekend consisting of Small College Nationals and the revamped MIT tournament, which has very quickly become the best fall tournament outside of the ITA. Last weekend seven teams found their way up to Bates for the Wallach Invitational. While…
Another New England ITA, another showcase of the best depth the country has to offer. I’ll save the ramblings for the recap itself, but congrats to both Lubomir Cuba and Kyle Wolfe/Jerry Jiang on taking home the hardware. Rather than go through the actual event piece by piece, D3Regional and I are going to go through…
Happy ITA weekend, boys and girls. The New England ITA is the best thing that happens during the fall season in my 100% biased opinion. The amount of talent at this ITA is bordering on dangerous, and that’s without some of the region’s top players! The #1 player in the region and player generally thought to…
Guess what, regional fans? I’m back! With less teams! D3AS has gotten tired of reading massive regional roundups and decided it was finally time to not make me cover four times the amount of teams of anybody else. I will be focusing on New England and the West this year, and I couldn’t be more…
The new season is upon us, which means a new set of upsets, nail-biters, and, most importantly, freshmen. A few months ago, I wrote an article for the Tennis Recruiting Network (TRN) describing the impact of recruiting at the D-III level and how the caliber of recruits is at an all-time high. Today, I want…
Did y’all miss us? Well, I hope you did, because we’ve got some great things in store for you this year. I promised some big things over the summer and those things will hopefully come to life as we move throughout the season. If you need an introduction again, we are The Blog, the only…
I really liked the format that D3NE used for his NE Men’s Post-Season Update, so I’m going to copy his format and give you the NE Women’s Post-Season Update! I’ll go over each of the top 20 teams in the NE region (according to the 4/28/16 ITA rankings) and talk about NCAA Team, NCAA Doubles,…
Happy Tuesday evening, boys and girls. Last week I gave you a little NE NCAA update with a bonus match preview at the end, and tonight I’ve decided to come back for seconds. I’m going to dive into the horribly unpredictable nature of the Individual regional rankings, and also do some looking ahead to see…
NCAA MEN’S REGIONAL PLAYERS OF THE WEEK: 3/21-3/27 What a great weekend. NCAA tourney, Batman vs Superman, Sonny Dearth and CNU over Hopkins. What a whirlwind. In honor of that extraordinarily mediocre movie, we’re going back to a theme that sits near and dear to my heart, superheroes! The Players of the Week are kind…
