The Matchup
• The No. 2 Wake Forest men's tennis team hits the road to take UCF in nonconference action on Sunday, March 10. First serve is set for 12:00 p.m. and the match will be played at the USTA National Campus, the site of this year's NCAA Championships.
• Sunday's match begins a two-match swing through Florida, as the Deacs will face the Gators on Wednesday, March 13.

Chrysochos' Career
• Against UCLA on Feb. 16, senior Petros Chrysochos became the program's all-time leader in singles victories with 120 when he defeated Govind Nanda, 6-1, 6-4. Chrysochos needed seven singles wins entering spring play to break the previous record of 119, which was held by former teammate Skander Mansouri.
• In the fall, Chrysochos won the program's first-ever singles title at the ITA Fall Championships, topping USC's Daniel Cukierman in the finals. Chrysochos is believed to be the first men's player since Arizona State's Sargis Sargsian (1994-95) to win all three major DI titles (NCAA, ITA All-American, ITA Fall Championships) in a career.

Lineup Shuffle
• The Demon Deacons have showcased their lineup versatility this year, as 10 different players have played dual matches spring.
• Rrezart Cungu, Melios Efstathiou and Yuval Solomon have showcased the most versatility, as the three Deacs have all appeared in four different singles spots.

All-Tourney Deacs
• A quartet of Deacs were named to the All-Tournament Team at the ITA National Team Indoor Championship.
• Petros Chrysochos and Bar Botzer were named to the singles All-Tournament Team while the doubles team of Alan Gadjiev and Borna Gojo were named to the doubles team.
• For their efforts, Botzer was named the ACC Player of the Week while Gadjiev and Gojo were the ACC Doubles Team of the Week.

Next Time Out
• The Deacs head to Gainesville, Florida, on Wednesday March 13 to take on the ninth-ranked Gators.
• First serve is set for 5 p.m. at the Aflred A. Ring Tennis Complex.
