MACON, Ga. – After a stoppage in the middle of doubles play on Friday night and a series of rain delays throughout Saturday morning, the Wofford men's tennis team's season came to an end after falling to No. 1 seed ETSU, 4-0, in the semifinals of the 2019 Southern Conference Men's Tennis Championship. The Bucs advance to their fifth consecutive SoCon championship to be played this evening, awaiting the winner of No. 6 Mercer/No. 2 Furman.
 
"I'll never forget whatever this team did this year," asserted head coach Rod Ray. "They handled adversity so well it almost always went unnoticed. We played a good schedule and because of their commitment, we got better from it. We came to win today, but so did ETSU and they deserved the win."
 
The Bucs started taking No. 2 doubles, as ETSU's Frazier Rengifo and Yusuf Khamis snapped Javi Casasolas and Bryce Keim's five-match win streak with a 6-4 decision. Kyle Barr and Diego Losada then fell shortly after to Sergi Fontcuberta and David Gonzalez on the No. 3 court, 6-3, to solidify the 1-0 lead for the Bucs.
 
The Bucs carried their dominance over into singles play, taking first sets in five of the six matches before earning the first three singles wins.
 
ETSU got things started on court six, as Barr was shutout by Miguel Este to extend the lead to 2-0 at the start of singles play.

Junior Julian Chousa was the lone Terrier on the day to win a set, taking his first (6-4) in his matchup with Rengifo on court one. 

Sophomore Edu Villar then fell in straight sets, 6-2, 6-1, in No. 3 singles to Juan Lugo, as classmate Omar Williams came up short shortly after to Fontcuberta in No. 2 singles, 6-2, 6-3, to grant ETSU the 4-0 win in sweeping fashion.
 
The Terriers end the 2019 season 8-13 overall and 3-3 in the SoCon. Edu Villar led the team in singles wins, notching 10 on the season as the lone Terrier to reach double-digit win totals. The Spartanburg duo of Omar Williams and Bryce Keim led the team in doubles wins with six on the year from the No. 2 position.
