The UK Men’s Tennis team heads to the quarterfinals for the sixth time in history

The University of Kentucky men’s tennis team is headed to the national quarterfinals for just the sixth time in program history.

Kentucky freshman Charlelie Cosnet clinched the win for the fourth-seeded Wildcats as they knocked off Stanford, 4-3, in the Lexington Super Regional yesterday.

The Hilary J. Boone Tennis Complex had a record crowd of 903 on hand to see the victory, smashing the previous record of 686 when Kentucky defeated Louisville in the Round of 32 in 2011.

With the win, Kentucky advanced to the final site of the NCAA Championship, to be held at the USTA National Campus in Orlando, Florida from May 18-20. The Wildcats await the winner of the Charlottesville Super Regional in a Quarterfinal to be played on Thursday.

The Semifinals and Final will be televised live on Tennis Channel.

A big win for the UK Tennis team, which has really been a force nationally the last few years.

Let’s see if the Wildcats can bring home a championship!
