This week two Virginia Cavaliers tennis players swept the ACC’s player of the year awards with Iñaki Montes winning the men’s award and Emma Navarro winning the women’s. This comes after two hugely successful seasons for the respective UVA tennis programs.
On the men’s side, Montes was a critical player in Virginia’s run to both ACC and NCAA championships. He was ranked 12th nationally as a singles player and finished the year 22-5 in singles matches including a perfect 6-0 record against top-25 ranked opponents.
Alongside Montes, UVA’s Chris Rodesch made the All-ACC first team with Ryan Goetz and Jeffrey von der Schulenburg earning second team honors while Gianni Ross placed on the third team.
