STARTING SERVE: After four shutouts against Mississippi Valley State during opening weekend of the spring schedule, the Tennessee State men’s tennis team are set to take the short drive to Murfreesboro, Tenn. to play the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders Sunday, Jan. 28 at 4 p.m.

LAST TIME OUT: Freshman Stefan Koruga proved a valuable asset to the Tigers as he joined the sole senior on the team, Shashank Nautiyal at the No. 1 doubles spot to defeat MVSU’s Jordan Freeman and Kenneth Milton, 6-0 three times over the course of the weekend.

Larry Sloan and Kato Richardson helped secure the doubles point in each match, paving the way for the Tigers to clutch the singles points.

Sophomore Larry Sloan played at No. 1, Shashank Nautiyal at No. 2, Stefan Koruga at No. 3, Pavle Popovic at No. 4 and Kato Richardson at No. 5 – each going undefeated each day and across all courts.
