OXFORD, Miss. -- Ole Miss men's tennis senior Nik Scholtz earned his fourth consecutive bid to the NCAA Singles Championship and his third overall doubles bid, as he and freshman Zvonimir Babic made the doubles field.
Scholtz becomes the third player in program history to qualify for the NCAA Singles Championship all four years and the third player to make both singles and doubles three years.
Last week, Scholtz became the first Rebel netter to earn All-SEC First Team honors all four years. He owns a 14-5 record at No. 1 singles. Â
Scholtz and Babic teamed up to post an 8-7 record, 5-5 in the SEC. They beat the defending NCAA Champions to help the Rebels clinch the doubles point against Tennessee.
The Rebels earned their 22nd consecutive NCAA bid and will host the first and second rounds for the 12th time, May 8-9 at the Palmer/Salloum Tennis Center. They will face Alabama State in the first round May 8 at 3 p.m. The championship match is May 9 at 1 p.m.
