Ohio State's fifth-ranked men's tennis team squared off against No. 14 Northwestern on Friday night in Columbus. After a 4–0 sweep of the Wildcats, the Buckeyes found themselves in a familiar place – atop the Big Ten.
The victory gave head coach Ty Tucker a share of his 11th-straight regular season conference title. Following the match, Tucker credited his players, coaches, and the stability of the program.
“You can’t win without great players and we’ve been fortunate enough to recruit great players who are great student-athletes and who want to win tennis matches. Associate head coach Justin Kronauge has been here all 11 years and assistant coach David Schilling has been here 17 years so we’ve had great stability and that’s been a huge part of it.
