The Virginia Cavaliers men’s tennis team continued an incredibly successful weekend of UVA sports by winning the ACC Championship early Sunday afternoon. Virginia beat beat the North Carolina Tar Heels in the final, 4-3 and senior Ryan Goetz was named tournament MVP.
Things didn’t start great for UVA as the ‘Hoos dropped the doubles point to the Heels, losing the first and third matches of the three. Fortunately, though, Virginia dominated in the singles matches.
Specifically, Goetz and Jeffrey Von Der Schulenburg each lost their first set (6-2 and 6-3) before dominating the next two sets as Goetz clinched his single’s match with two 6-1 victories and Von Der Schulenburg won 6-0 and 6-2.
