STILLWATER, Okla. – Florida State's Antoine Cornut-Chauvinc and Joshua Dous-Karpenschif finished as runners-up in the NCAA Doubles Championship after a 10-point tiebreaker to decide the national championship. This marks Florida State's furthest run in any NCAA Men's Tennis Championship event.
Cornut-Chauvinc and Dous-Karpenschif were in a tight battle to start the first set, with both duos holding serve at 5-5 before FSU closed out the frame at 7-5 with five straight points. The Seminoles won all five of their first sets during the NCAA Doubles Tournament.
Robert Cash and JJ Tracy responded with a 6-0 victory in the second set to create the 10-point tiebreaker to decide the national championship.
