Chicago (Sept. 23, 2024) The UIC Men's Tennis team wrapped up another successful weekend in Toledo, Ohio at the Everybody vs Cancer Invitational.
 
The team's second competition of this fall season saw two players reach the finals of their respective single draws. Sophomore Mihailo Savic (Smederevska Palanka, Serbia/ Sportska Gimnazija) won the consolation draw, and Sophomore Artem Alekseychuk (Alicante, Spain/ Buffalo) reached the finals of the singles A draw.
 
Quote from Head Coach Jovan Parlic
 "It was a fantastic weekend for the Flames. Many of our players experienced their first college away trip, and it was inspiring to see them compete. Artem (Alekseychuk) had an impressive tournament, reaching the finals of the singles draw, while Mihailo (Savic) won the consolation draw. We're looking forward to two weeks of solid preparation before heading to Regionals hosted by Michigan State."
