Men's Tennis Splits for Weekend Tournaments

MALIBU, Calif. – All members of the Pepperdine men's tennis team will take action this weekend, as four Waves will head to the ITA All-American Championships in Tulsa, Oklahoma, as three will stay in Southern California and travel to the San Diego State Fall Invitational.

WHO, WHAT, WHERE:
Adrian Oetzbach, Enrique Luque Rico, Corrado Summaria and Tim Zeitvogel will all make the trek to Tulsa, where they will compete in the ITA All-American Championships. The pre-qualifying round is set to begin on Saturday, October 5, and will feature 256 players from around the country.

Heading to San Diego will be Pawel Jankowiak and freshmen Robert Shelton and Evan Shamlian as it will be the first outing for Shelton and Shamlian in a Pepperdine uniform.

LAST OUTING:
Sophomore Corrado Summaria had quite the weekend over the Oracle/ITA Masters, as he defeated two ranked opponents in the #63 Zdenek Derkas from Fresno State and the #16 player from Texas A&M Hady Habib before eventually falling to Illinois' #23 Alex Brown in the tournament quarterfinals.

Earlier this month, Enrique Luque Rico and Tim Zeitvogel played in the Milwaukee Tennis Classic, also sanctioned by the ITA. Luque Rico dropped his first round match-up 1-6, 5-7 to Tennessee's Patrick Harper but made it into the round of 16 in the consolation bracket. Zeitvogel won his first match 4-6, 6-2, 6-2 over Alex Jochim of IUPUI but lost in the round of 32 in the main draw. In doubles, the two defeated their first round opponents 8-6 before faltering in the second round.
