Utah State men’s tennis freshman Valdemar Holm was named the Mountain West Men’s Tennis Player of the Week for matches played through Jan. 16, it was announced Wednesday by the conference office.
Overall, it is the first time this season and in his career Holm has earned MW Player of the Week honors.
Holm, a Malmo, Sweden native, posted a perfect 4-0 combined mark in singles and doubles last week to help Utah State to a pair of season-opening home wins against Southern Utah (7-0) and Idaho State (7-0). Against the Thunderbirds, Holm and senior Andrew Nakajima clinched the doubles point with a 7-5 victory at the first position.
