WACO, Texas – No. 2 Baylor men’s tennis wraps up its three-match homestand with a midweek tilt against UT Arlington on Wednesday at 4 p.m. at the Hurd Tennis Center.

The Bears (13-2) are in search of their ninth home victory of 2021, while the Mavericks (1-1) will compete for just the third time this year and first since Feb. 6.

Currently, BU holds a combined 63-8 record in singles matches and a 31-11 mark in doubles action this dual season. Fifth-year senior Charlie Broom leads the Bears with nine singles wins and seven doubles victories alongside junior Matias Soto.

Baylor has claimed the doubles point in 11 of its 15 matches this spring and is 10-1 in matches when doing so. BU has lined up 12 different pairings in doubles so far in the 2021 campaign.

Two Bears are closing in on milestones, as fourth-year junior Sven Lah is two doubles wins shy of cracking the top 10 on BU’s career leaderboard with 77. His partner, fifth-year senior Constantin Frantzen, currently sits tied for fifth with 96 career doubles victories. Benjamin Becker (2001-05) holds the record with 104 career doubles wins.

Baylor leads the all-time series against UTA, 16-5, and has won each of the last 14 meetings. Eight of the last 10 contests between the two sides have resulted in 7-0 sweeps for the Bears.
