TROY, Ala. – The Troy men's tennis team is back in action on Tuesday morning, as it welcomes Spring Hill to the Lunsford Tennis Complex. First serve is set for 10:30 a.m.

The Trojans have gotten tremendous singles play to open the season, as the team has a combined 38-20 dual record. Leading the charge has been Hiiro Sakamoto, who is 9-1 on the season and has won seven straight matches. Yeray Andres Pastor and Luciano Alcocer have each put together 7-1 records. Pastor is 2-0 when playing in the top singles spot and 5-1 at No. 2.
Doubles play has also been an area of strength for Troy, who has taken the crucial 1-0 lead in seven matches this season. In those duals, Troy is 6-1. Alcocer and Sakamoto have been paired together for each match this spring and are 8-4. The only other Troy duo that has played in more than three matches this season is Henrique de Brito and Nicolas Simkin, who are 5-0.
