SMU Tennis Players Garner ITA National Preseason Rankings

DALLAS (SMU)-- SMU men's tennis player Alex Skrypko and the women's doubles team of Natalia Bubien and Claire Rietsch garnered ITA national preseason rankings, as announced earlier this week.

Skrypko, who took first-team All-Conference USA honors following last season, is currently ranked No.39 in the country. Last season, Skrypko posted an 11-9 record at No. 1 singles and defeated three nationally-ranked top-50 singles opponents. He finished last season with a final ranking of No. 65.

Bubien and Rietsch, who competed at No. 1 doubles last season, are the top-ranked pair in Conference USA, coming in at No. 34 in the nation. Bubien and Rietsch were both named to the first-team All-Conference team at the conclusion of their spring season. Together, they amassed an 18-4 mark on the season, including a victory over a top-50 ranked doubles team from Troy. The duo finished the season ranked at No. 58.

Fall tennis action begins this weekend, as the women's singles head to the UNT Invitational in Denton, and the men's singles head to the Rice Invitational. For complete schedules and results, log on to SMUMutangs.com
