LAST TIME OUT

Prior to the start of the league tournament, multiple WSU student-athletes garnered All-GLIAC honors. In singles, graduate student Luis Klaus (Brühl, Germany / Archbishop's St. Ursula gymnasium [TH Köln]) and sophomore George Day (Southampton, United Kingdom / Peter Symonds College) were named to the first team, while sophomore Tom Wasner (Altenholz, Germany / Friedrichsort Community School) and freshman Thomas Mathys (Grimisuat, Switzerland / ECCG - Martigny) received second-team recognition. On the doubles side, Wayne State's top two pairings of Klaus and Harry Forsyth (Wamberal, New South Wales, Australia / The McDonald College [Mississippi College]) along with Day and Mathys were both named Second Team All-GLIAC. Freshman Warren Gunnar (Ypsilanti, Mich. / Ann Arbor Huron) was tabbed as an honorable mention.
