Badgers Host Butler on Friday and Denver on Sunday - From Coach Westerman

Fri, 23 Feb 2024 16:39:25 GMT

Hello Friends of Badger Men's Tennis,

We are very excited to host Butler and Denver this weekend to wrap up our long home slate. If you have not had a chance to check out your Badgers, the next time we will be at home will be the weekend of April 4-6--so don't miss this opportunity!

--Friday, 2/23, 3pm vs Butler
--Sunday, 2/25 10:30am vs Denver

Michael Minasyan continues his stellar play this spring with a win against the #30 ranked singles player in the nation--Planinsek of Alabama. We hope to have one player come off the injured list this weekend which would be a nice boost for the guys. Check our social pages for updates, live scoring, and live streaming for those following from home. We appreciate all the support and the guys are ready to battle once again this weekend.

On, Wisconsin!

University of Wisconsin | Head Men's Tennis Coach

Note from Coach Westerman - Sunday, Simultaneous match with Women's Tennis

Sat, 10 Feb 2024 18:59:20 GMT

Hello Badger Men's Tennis Supporters,

Sunday, 2/11 at Noon vs #21 Alabama!

On Sunday we have a very unique opportunity for fans to enjoy BOTH the Men's and Women's Teams compete at the SAME TIME! Our Women's Team will play Notre Dame at Noon as well and all 12 courts at Nielsen will be used. Would love your support this upcoming weekend and enjoy the simultaneous Men's and Women's match this Sunday.

Homecoming for a Badger:

Fans may recognize a member of the Alabama Coaching Staff as UW graduate Sebastian Vile was recently hired as a Graduate Assistant Coach. We are excited to have "Sebo" back home for a weekend.

Hope all of you are doing great and, as always, thank you for your continued support.

On, Wisconsin!

Badger M Tennis Hosts Washington / Oregon this Weekend

Thu, 01 Feb 2024 21:59:52 GMT

Forwarded email from Coach Danny Westerman

Hello Friends of Badger Men's Tennis,

Your Badgers are off to tough start so far this season. The injury bug has taken a big bite out of our lineup this early this season. Unfortunately, we are missing three starters from last year's season that all were projected to play in the top 4 in our lineup. On the flip side, our large freshman class is getting valuable playing time and competing extremely hard these last couple weeks. Another bright spot has been the development of Sophomore Michael Minasyan. Mikey played number #6 singles the majority of last season and has taken on the challenge to play at the top of lineup this spring. He is 3-1 on the season with a win at #1 versus a tough Old Dominion team.

This weekend we host a pair of Pac-12 teams that will become full time Big Ten conference members next season in Washington and Oregon.

Friday, 2/2 vs Washington at 530pm
Sunday, 2/4 vs Oregon at 11am

Thanks to our fans for coming out and supporting our players. You all really make a difference. Last week, we had a great crowd in a very exciting match versus Notre Dame. This weekend will be very similar with two tough opponents.

Hope to see you out at Nielsen and as always, thank you for your support.

On, Wisconsin!

New GMTA Junior Tennis Tournament, July 29-30 @ La Follette

Fri, 07 Jul 2023 14:02:29 GMT

The GMTA is sponsoring its first USTA junior tournament. For a long time, juniors have needed to travel far outside Madison to enter USTA tournaments so we wanted to support this locally. We are starting with a level 6 boys 14's and 16's singles tournament that would be great for intermediate to advanced juniors looking to get tournament experience with hopes to play high school tennis. We look forward to expanding next year to include girls.

The tournament will run July 29-30 at the La Follette high school tennis courts. Registration closes July 24.

Holiday Message from UW Coach Danny!

Sat, 24 Dec 2022 13:13:50 GMT

Hello Friends of Badger Men’s Tennis!

Hope all of you had a great Thanksgiving and are looking forward to the holidays. Your Badgers are wrapping up the semester and in the midst of final exams at the moment.

Since our last update, Gabriel Huber and Michael Minasyan played at the ITA Fall Nationals and picked up a very impressive win over All-American Championship Finalist Seggerman/Cernoch of North Carolina. After their fantastic fall, Huber and Minasyan are now ranked #24 in the Nation!

The rest of team competed at the annual Big Ten Individual tournament to wrap up our fall season. We had nice performances from several guys and each player there picked up multiple wins. The highlight of the weekend was Sebastian Vile advancing all the way to the finals. Click HERE for a full recap of the weekend of Fall Nationals and Big Ten Individuals.

We are also extremely excited to announce our Fall 2023 signing class. Next year we lose some key players, and we look forward to this freshman class stepping in well. We signed two top European Players—Oliver Olsson from Germany and Tomas Zlatohlavek of the Czech Republic. Oliver has been one of the top German juniors for many years now and he has represented his country at the prestigious European Championships in 2021. Tomas has made very steady progress and recently made the semifinals of the Czech Men’s National Championships.

We also signed the top two players from Minnesota in Matthew Fullerton and Collin Beduhn. Both are 5-Star US recruits and are competing at the highest levels of USTA tournaments. Coincidently, they played each other in MN HS State Singles Finals in an epic 4 hour final! Full Release with more details on our signing class can be found HERE.

The spring team season is just around the corner and we open at home versus two 2022 NCAA Tournament Teams right out of the gate. We host the always tough DePaul on Friday Jan. 20 at 530pm. Then next day we try to avenge a 4-3 loss last season vs Princeton on Saturday Jan. 21 at 5pm.

Our full schedule can be found HERE and attached is our printable schedule. There is an “Add to Calendar” feature on the webpage so you will never forget when we play! We are very excited for the upcoming season and hope to get some great home crowds. Last year, our fans helped us to a 7-2 home record and we hope to keep that momentum this season.

Wishing all of you and your families Happy Holiday and see you at Nielsen Tennis Stadium or on the road this spring!

On, Wisconsin!

Thank You from Badger Men's Tennis

Wed, 11 May 2022 15:20:58 GMT

Hello Friends of Badger Men's Tennis,

I would like to first thank all of you for your support this season. Our team really grew as the season went on and once at full strength, we played some fantastic tennis. Last week at Nielsen during the Big Ten Tournament was special! We would have loved to go a bit further in event, but the crowd and atmosphere was electric! Thank you to all the fans that made it out! You all made it an experience our players will never forget!

The match versus Illinois started great for your Badgers. In Doubles play, Robin Parts and Sebastian Vile won their match at #1. A new pair of Gabriel Huber and Lenard Soha clinched the first point with an incredibly tense tiebreaker win at #3. In singles, we battled incredibly hard, but unfortunately, we could not beat the Illini for a second time this season. Full Recap with box scores below:

Illinois defeats UW 4-1 HERE

We are incredibly proud of the growth and accomplishments of our team this season. We finished 3rd in the Big Ten which was our highest conference finish since 2008. Individually, Jared Pratt had a very solid season and earned a Second-Team All Big Ten Selection. What was very exciting about this group was that different players stepped up in different times of the season to clinch or win must have individual matches. We were 6-1 in 4-3 matches this season which speaks to the team first mentality we played with. We cannot wait to get going next season as we return 6 of our 8 players and add two very good recruits for this fall.

We truly appreciate all your support and while our last match at Nielsen was a loss, you all made it very special.

Wishing you all a great summer and we are already looking forward to getting back on the courts with this group next fall.

Please enjoy our season highlight video HERE and some fun photos of our last home match!

Wishing all of you a fantastic summer!

On, Wisconsin!

We would really love to pack the stands at Nielsen this Friday, April 29 at 6pm. We defeated Illinois 4-3 earlier this season and we expect another very tough and exciting match. We hope see you there!

From Coach Westerman: Badger Men's Tennis, 3rd in Big Ten: Home vs #2 OSU Fri @ 3pm, PSU Sun 11am

Mon, 18 Apr 2022 23:20:19 GMT

Hello Friends of Badger Men's Tennis,

Your Badgers had a great weekend on the road picking up two more B1G wins versus Indiana and Purdue. We are now 5-2 in B1G TEN play and in sole possession of 3rd place heading into our final weekend of regular season play.

The weekend began in Bloomington in very tough windy conditions leading to a very competitive battle. We started the match very well picking up the doubles point and two quick singles wins by Jared Pratt at #1 and Sebastian Vile at #4 to take a 3-0 lead. However, Indiana fought hard and picked up three singles wins of the their own to tie the match. Gabriel Huber at #3 singles was the last Badger remaining for the deciding match. Huber was down 0-2 in the 3rd set before winning 6 of the remaining 7 games to clinch the match 6-3, 1-6, 6-3 for a 4-3 for the Badgers.

We carried that momentum to Purdue and again, started the match in a dominating fashion. After winning the doubles point, we next picked up wins from Tim Dzhurinskiy and Gabriel Huber to take a 3-0 lead. The final point proved very tough as Purdue won at #1 and then the last three matches were all in third sets. This time Robin Parts picked up the clinching point with a come from behind win at #5, 4-6, 6-3, 6-1. Lenard Soha and Sebastian Vile then went on to win their respective matches at #2 and #4 to round out a 6-1 win for the Badgers.

Full Recaps and Box scores:

4-3 Win vs Indiana HERE

6-1 Win vs Purdue HERE

This Friday, April 22nd at 3pm, we host #2 ranked Ohio State at Nielsen Tennis Stadium. Sunday, April 24th we welcome Penn State at 11am to wrap up our regular season. The final two matches will determine our seeding and schedule for the Big Ten Tournament here in Madison April 28-May 1.

We hope to see you at our final two regular season matches at home! As always, thank you for your support and we are excited to finish the regular season in front of our fans.

On, Wisconsin!

Hello Friends of Badger Men's Tennis,

We are excited to be back home this weekend at Nielsen Tennis Stadium versus two very good B1G TEN Teams. This Friday at 3pm we take on #25 Northwestern, and finish the weekend Sunday versus Illinois at Noon. Both matches are scheduled for outdoors, but we will move indoors if needed.

Your Badgers are currently 2-1 in the B1G TEN with wins over Michigan State and Nebraska. Our loss came at #4 Michigan two weekends ago. The match this past Saturday at Nebraska was incredibly exciting as we battled back from a 1-3 deficit to earn a 4-3 win. We started the match with the critical doubles point, but Nebraska stormed back with three straight-set singles wins to take a 3-1 lead. The final three matches were all in third sets, and the boys knew we need to be perfect at those spots to get a comeback win. Gabriel Huber at #3 singles came back from 2-4 in the third set for our second point. Jared Pratt really stepped up at #2 singles after losing first set in tiebreaker to take the next two sets 6-0, 6-1 to tie the match at 3-3. Finally, Sebastian Vile (#4 Singles) came up clutch yet again after dropping the first set to clinch the 4-3 team win for the third time this season!

We hope to see you at Nielsen Tennis Stadium this weekend as we play 2 of our 4 home B1G TEN Matches. Finally, here's another reminder mark your calendars for April 28-May 1 as we host the B1G TEN Team Championships!

As always, thank you for your continued support and ON, WISCONSIN!

Best,

Danny

Hello Friends of Badger Men's Tennis,

Your Badgers picked up a very gritty 4-3 win over a tough Western Michigan Team last Saturday at Nielsen Tennis Stadium. We had a great atmosphere to begin the match thanks to our Women's Team hosting a kids clinic for local Madison youth! The match, however, did not start of great for our guys, with WMU picking up the always important doubles point with wins at #2 and #3. Gabriel Huber tied the match at 1-1 with a quick 6-1, 6-2 win at #3 singles. Huber has been out since January 31 with an injury and his return gave us a huge lift in our singles lineup. WMU answered with straight set wins at #1 and #4 to take a 3-1 lead with three matches to play. But your Badgers did not flinch! Next, Lenard Soha and Tim Dzhurinskiy continued their strong spring seasons with big wins at #2 and #6 respectively, to tie the match at 3-3. The last man standing for your Badgers was Sebastian Vile at #4 singles for the second time this season. Vile came through once again, coming back after dropping the first set with a 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 to clinch the dual for the Badgers!

Full Recap HERE.

Up next we travel to San Diego, CA for Spring Break. We play #13 Harvard on Tuesday, March 15 at 10am PST and #37 San Diego on Thursday March 17 at Noon PST. The team is really looking forward to a great trip out West for the opportunity to take on two very good programs. Our next home weekend is not until April 8 versus Northwestern and April 10 versus Illinois. Please also mark your calendars for April 28-May 1 as we get set to host the Big Ten Team Championships. We hope to see you back at Nielsen Tennis Stadium soon!

As always, thank you for all your support!

On, Wisconsin!

Hello Friends of Badger Men's Tennis,

We had a great weekend on the road in the Pacific Northwest splitting a pair of matches versus the Pac-12. We started the weekend with a very good win over a tough Oregon team. Oregon has had a very solid start to their season including a huge home win over Pepperdine, but your Badgers were up to the task. We started off strong by winning the doubles point, and getting a quick win by Daniel Nuzhny at #6 to put us up 2-0. After a loss at #1, Sebastian Vile earned a straight set win at #4 to put us up 3-1. The clinching point would prove very tough to win as we were in 3rd sets in the final three matches. Tim Dzhurinskiy came up with the clinching 4th point with a 2-6, 7-6 (2), 6-4 win after saving match point in the second set. Parts capped off the 5-2 team win with another come from behind singles 3-set win for the Badgers.

Sunday's match versus Washington proved to be a little too tough. We started the morning great earning the doubles point with wins at #1 and #3. Unfortunately, we could only pick up one win in singles with Dzhurinskiy at #5. Washington is currently 9-3 and just came off hosting the ITA National Team Indoor Championships and was very sharp on their home courts.

Full Recaps and box scores below:

UW vs Oregon--5-2 Win HERE

UW vs Washington--2-5 Loss HERE

We are very excited to play back at home this Saturday at Noon versus a very good Western Michigan team. WMU has played a tough schedule so far and is currently 4-5 on the season including a 6-1 win over Michigan State. We expect a very competitive match and having a great crowd will certainly help us this Saturday. Hope to see you at Nielsen Tennis Stadium (Indoors) this Saturday at Noon!

New reservation system for Madison Parks

Sun, 01 Apr 2018 21:44:28 GMT

Here's an excerpt from an email by Mark J. Crosby of the City of Madison Parks Division about their new reservation system, which applies to tennis courts.

"Madison Parks has recently moved to an online reservation system for our many athletic facilities. You can now reserve by following the ‘reserve’ links on our web page. If your reservation is for a group that is for youth athletics or tax exempt you will need to apply for those discounts by creating an account and applying on this page. You can easily search for a general space type (soccer, backstop, ultimate, etc) or you can search for a specific park. After your initial search you can further filter spaces with things like lines, goals, lights.

Like our shelter reservations, full payment is now due when the reservation is made. If your reservation is rained out a cancellation will be made and your payment will be refunded."
