TALLAHASSEE — The No. 17 Florida State men’s tennis team is 19-8 with a 10-1 record at home and enters the NCAA Tournament fresh off an ACC Semifinals appearance last Saturday in Cary, North Carolina.
With wins over No. 64 Clemson and No. 14 North Carolina in the ACC Championships, Florida State now has 28 total victories in the ACC postseason play.
Junior Antoine Cornut-Chauvinc, the No. 6-ranked singles player in the country, leads the Seminoles with 16 wins this spring including one over former No. 1 Ethan Quinn. Youcef Rihane is also ranked in singles play.
Joshua Dous-Karpenschif and Antoine Cornut-Chauvinc are the 37-ranked doubles pair in the nation. Dous-Karpenschif and Cornut-Chauvinc have a 10-2 record together with a 3-0 record at No. 1, including a 6-1 victory over the No. 13 doubles pair from North Carolina.
