PrintPlay in the SEC Coaches' Indoor Tennis Championships wrapped up yesterday, 16 January 2012, with Georgia's Sadio Doumbia playing for the singles title and the team of Wil Spencer and Garrett Brasseaux vying for the doubles championship.

It's a disappointment not to repeat the conference indoor championship sweep from 2011, but reaching the finals in both singles and doubles for the third consecutive year shows the strength of the men's tennis program. Georgia opens 2012 match play against visiting Clemson this Saturday, 21 January, 1:00 p.m., at the Dan Magill Tennis Center. Be sure to check back early and often for all your Dawg Sports news.

By the way ...
Would it have been proper to refer to the doubles champions as “twingers”?
And I know collegiate tennis is an international thing, but check out the Ole Miss roster. All but one is from a foreign country, and amazingly, he’s from Oxford.

Are we now humoring/mocking Texan egos and referring to them as a foreign country?

Good catch.
And yes, it was purposeful for precisely the reason/s you suggest.

You wanna see foreign rosters?
Wait till they start playing some of the smaller schools. Some of the Southern/SunBelt/C-USA type teams must have a recruiter who spends 10 months a year and is based straight out of Eastern Europe.
