Oct. 3, 2003

CORAL GABLES, Fla.-The University of Miami men’s tennis team continues fall play traveling to Chattanooga, Tenn. to participate in the Icy Hot ITA All-American Championships.

Play begins Friday morning and continues throughout the weekend.

The tournament is not only the largest single tournament of this season in collegiate tennis, with over 300 competitors, but also the first of three national championship events at the Division I level during the 2003-04 collegiate tennis season.

The event is hosted at the Champions Club and sponsored by Chattem, Inc., a Chattanooga pharmaceutical firm who has chosen Icy Hot to be title sponsor.

Tim Krebs (Eschborn, Germany) and Colin Purcell (Louisville, Ky.) both lead the team with a singles record of 4-2 on the fall season.

The duo also has a doubles record of 4-2 beating No. 15 Paco Antelo and Renato Silveira of South Florida last Friday at the Gator Invitational.
