For the fourth week in succession, a different team has taken over the top spot in the ITA Division I men’s rankings, with Texas reaching No. 1 for the first time this season, despite their National Team Indoor title in February. The Longhorns, who have lost seven matches this year including two in SEC play, have one more conference match left, at home against Florida this Friday. The SEC men’s conference tournament begins April 15th in College Station.
There’s also a new No. 1 in men’s singles, with Virginia’s Dylan Dietrich returning to the top spot after Trevor Svajda of SMU suffered his second loss of the season to Viktor Markov of Clemson 2-6, 6-3, 7-6(1). Dietrich beat Svajda in their conference match; Dietrich’s sole loss of the dual match season came to Aidan Kim in the semifinals of the Team Indoor Championships.
