FORT WORTH - The No. 2 ranked TCU men's tennis team defeated No. 15 Arizona, 4-2 on Friday night at the Bayard H. Friedman Tennis Center.
TCU clinched the doubles point with wins on one and three. The freshmen held their own in singles as Cooper Woestendick, Roger Pascual and Albert Pedrico got wins to clinch the match.
"So proud of the guys," said head coach David Roditi. "Get down, win the doubles point and then get down again in singles when it seemed like 5-0. Credit to Arizona they came out firing. They have great players on one and two and they played better than us today on those courts. We were down a break on every court and Albert Pedrico was able to come back and Roger Pascual got the first set and Pedrico gets the first set and all of the sudden we are back in business. So proud of the guys and thank you to the crowd, it is spring break and we need help on Sunday as we take on Arizona State at 1 p.m. Go Frogs!"
