Dec. 8, 2005

CORAL GABLES, Fla. – Four members of the University of Miami men’s tennis team were included in the recently released Intercollegiate Tennis Association’s (ITA) Southeast Region fall rankings.

Among the quartet are juniors Luigi D’Agord (5th) and Josh Cohen (6th) and senior teammates Tim Krebs (20th) and Eric Hechtman (30th).

Highlighted by a semifinal appearance at the UVA Fall Classic, D’Agord, an All-SEC transfer from Alabama, posted an overall record of 11-3 this fall in his first season with the Hurricanes.

Cohen, an All-ACC selection a year ago, went 8-3 over the fall while Krebs and Hechtman turned out records of 6-3 and 4-4, respectively.

Cohen and Hecthman also drew a No. 9 regional doubles ranking.

Miami joins in-state foe Florida as the only two schools in the Southeast Region to boast a roster with at least four regionally ranked players, second only to Georgia with five.
