 Bryan Brown '09
| |
Although some skeptics might have anticipated that the men's tennis program would suffer due to the absence of previous number one singles player Brody Saunders '08, they had no idea that Bryan Brown '09 was yet to reach his peak. Stepping into the number one spot for the Mules, Brown showed not only his talent, but also his unyielding determination last weekend as he competed against some of the best tennis players in Division III at the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Tournament at Williams College. As the eighth seed he earned a bye in the first round before going on to defeat players from Middlebury College (5-2, default) and Amherst College (7-5, 6-2). In the quarterfinal round Brown put up a vigorous fight against third seeded Dan Greenberg of Williams; yet he fell by scores of 4-6, 4-6. The previous weekend Brown went undefeated at the Bowdoin Tennis Invitational, beating top players from both Bowdoin and Bates.
