WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — Continuing a highly-successful fall slate, the Wake Forest men's tennis team will send four young players to the Elon Invitational this weekend beginning on Friday, Oct. 25 at the Jimmy Powell Tennis Center.
The event will run through Sunday and action will begin at 9 a.m.
Demon Deacons Competing Last Time Out
Highlighted by doubles champions Luciano Tacchi and Luca Pow, the Wake Forest men's tennis team wrapped up a successful appearance at the ITA Carolina Regionals Monday afternoon in Durham, N.C.
After advancing through the first round due to a walkover, Tacchi and Pow picked up dominant 8-2 victories in the round of 32 and round of 16 against Tripathi/Dixon (Coastal Carolina) and M. Pitts/N. Pitts (Clemson), respectively. The duo then knocked off No. 59-ranked Melnic/Jarry of North Carolina, 8-5.
In the semifinals, they battled back against Duke's Winegar/Landau after dropping the first set and earned a 5-7, 6-3 [10-8] victory and advanced to the finals, where they faced the No. 5-ranked pair of Vukadin/Smith of Clemson. After once again facing a set deficit, Tacchi/Pow claimed the Carolina Regional Championship with an electric 3-6, 6-1 [11-9] win.
The victory automatically qualified them for the NCAA D1 Individual Championships hosted by Baylor on Nov. 19-24 in Waco, Texas.
