Virginia's Ryan Shane reacts to winning the NCAA men's tennis title.

Ryan Shane already shared one NCAA championship as part of Virginia's team title. The hard-hitting junior then rallied for an individual trophy, as well.

Shane recovered after losing the first five games in the men's singles match Monday. Though he dropped the first set, after play had been suspended by rain and lightning and moved inside, Shane had a break when Wake Forest freshman Noah Rubin was serving for the match before a second-set tiebreaker and went on to win 3-6, 7-6 (4), 6-1 on Monday.
