Men’s Tennis Earns ITA Academic Honors

MEMPHIS – The University of Memphis men's tennis team earned its 13th Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) All-Academic Team honor, Wednesday, for having a team GPA of 3.2 or higher. Memphis also had four players honored as ITA Scholar-Athletes for posting a GPA of 3.50 or higher during the past academic year.

This is a second ITA Scholar-Athlete honor for Shakeel Manji, Chris Patzanovsky and Felix Rauch and is the first academic honor from the ITA for rising senior Andrew Watson.

Manji is a rising senior at Memphis who teamed with Turner Voges for a doubles title at the Louisville Fall Invitational last year and was last named an ITA Scholar-Athlete in 2015 as a freshman.
