FORT WORTH, Texas - The No. 4 TCU men's tennis team breezed into the NCAA Division I Team Championship second round after making quick work of Jackson State, 4-0, on Friday in the opening round of the championship at the Bayard H. Friedman Tennis Center.

Guillermo Nuñez and Trevor Johnson got things started with a 6-0 win on court two in doubles before the newly formed pairing of Cameron Norrie and Eduardo Nava downed Richie Agarwal and Federico Mendieta Rulz, 6-1, on court three to pick up the doubles point for TCU.
Jerry Lopez scored his team-best 25th win this season and put point No. 2 on the board with a 6-0, 6-2 win on court three. No. 5 Norrie picked up his second victory on the day with a 6-0, 6-1 win at the top position, with junior Trey Daniel closing out the sweep with a 6-2, 6-0 win on court five.
Quotes of the Match
Head Coach David Roditi
"Our guys were very business-like and took care of business today. I am proud of them for playing well and doing everything they can to win every single point. I congratulate Jackson State and head coach Lois Alexis for making it the NCAA Championship. It is something that is very hard to do and they deserve a lot of credit. I hope their team had a great experience and we did our best to create the best atmosphere possible so it was a memorable day for them.
"For us, it is now time to get ready for the other tigers - the LSU Tigers. They won a really tough match earlier today and they are very match tough. They go through a whole season in the SEC and will be ready to battle. We are right where we want to be and our team is excited to keep the streak going here at home and also give us the best chance at seeing what we can do. Regardless of what goes on, I am very proud of this team. They have accomplished so much not only on the court, but also in the classroom.
"I also want to thank our athletic department and our financial aid office as they were also here today. I really want to thank Mike Scott for bringing out the whole office because it was a really beautiful day. Huge thanks to Mr. Del Conte for allowing the athletic department to come out and support us. It has been a pleasure and an honor to play in front of our fans all season and we have one more tomorrow."
