Chicago IL--
I have internet access at the Midtown Tennis Club, so I thought I'd post a midday report on the ITA Men's Indoor. There were no upsets as No. 1 Georgia, No. 4 Virginia and No. 5 Mississippi advanced by 4-0 scores. The one close match, between No. 8 Notre Dame and No. 9 Pepperdine, is still in progess, with the score 2-2.
Virginia, a finalist in 2005 when the tournament was last played here, handled Texas, winning the doubles point and getting victories from No. 1 Somdev Devvarman, No. 2 Treat Huey and No. 4 Houston Barrick.
A hour and a half doubles point in Ole Miss's match with Boise State led to a sweep for the Rebels, when No. 1 Erling Tveit, No. 4 Robbye Poole and No. 5 Karl Norberg took points at their positions.
Georgia's freshmen came through for them, with No. 5 Nate Schnugg and No. 6 Jamie Hunt contributing a point in singles after teaming to help the Bulldogs take the doubles at No. 3. Travis Helgeson at No. 3 clinched the win for the heavily favored Bulldogs.
