Texas A&M’s Alex Vedri falls in ITA Texas Regional Consolation Semifinal

Texas A&M men’s tennis freshman Alex Vedri dropped a third set tiebreaker to Roberto Rosales of SMU in the ITA DI Texas Men’s Regional Consolation Semifinal at the Hurd Tennis Center Monday morning.

The Aggies were joined by players from Abilene Christian, Baylor, Incarnate Word, Lamar, Rice, SMU, TCU, Texas, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, UT Arlington, UTSA and UTRGV at the ITA Texas Regional.

Vedri bounced back from a 6-1 setback in the first set against Rosales to win the second set, 6-2, and force a third set tiebreaker. As play was about to begin for the breaker, rain began to fall and forced the action indoors. Rosales captured the early momentum in the tiebreaker and advanced to the finals with a 10-4 result.

The ITA Regional Championships feature some of the top men's and women's players across the country. Over 8,000 student-athletes from NCAA Division I, II, III, NAIA, Junior and Community Colleges compete across 85 ITA Regional Championships around the country. In Division I, regional doubles champions and regional singles champions and finalists qualify for the season-ending Oracle ITA National Fall Championships in Surprise, Ari.
