MALIBU, California –
Daniel De Jonge and
Tim Zeitvogel of the
Pepperdine men's tennis program reached the doubles final of the ITA Southwest Regional to cap off an impressive week for the program as the event ended on Monday.
De Jonge (Vlissingen, Netherlands) and
Zeitovgel (Baden-Baden, Germany) were the #5 seed in the tournament and won four matches from Friday through Sunday to reach the finals, where the pair lost to the #2 doubles team in the country, Stefan
Dostanic and Bradley Frye from USC, in a 6-7 (5), 7-5, [10-7] decision.
As finalists in the event, the pair punched a ticket to the ITA National Fall Championships in San Diego from November 2-6.
