TULSA, Okla. – The Baylor men’s tennis duo of Finn Bass and Juan Pablo Grassi Mazzuchi pulled out the 6-4, 6-7(1), 1-0(3) win on Saturday afternoon to advance to the final round of the ITA All-American Championship doubles finals in the consolation bracket.



THE RUNDOWN

Bass and Grassi Mazzuchi fell to an early 3-0 deficit in the first set of Saturday afternoon’s match, but quickly returned the favor and only allowed the Cardinals to one more game. The back half of set one was all Baylor as the Bears took the 6-4 win over Fabien Salle and Natan Rodrigues.



Set two began with a similar story, as the Bears fell behind 3-0 early right out of the gate. As they did in the first set, the Bears stormed back and took set No. 2 to a tiebreaker. The pair from Louisville surged and won the tiebreak 7-1.



The match all came down to a 10-point tiebreaker, where the Bears and Cardinals traded points up until the birds scored their third point. After that, Bass and Grassi Mazzuchi ran away with the tiebreaker and the win, 10-3.



WHAT’S NEXT

Bass and Grassi Mazzuchi face Virginia Tech’s Ryan Fishback and Jordan Chrysostom on Sunday morning to decide the title of the All-American Championship doubles consolation title.
