  • Wake's Petros Chrysochos has won 23 straight matches with 22 of those finishing in straight sets
  • Wake's Bar Botzer has won 16 of his last 17 (streak snapped against Texas A&M)
  • Wake's Skander Mansouri has won 11 of his last 12 matches (streak snapped against Texas A&M)
  • Wake's Borna Gojo has won 9 straight matches

  • OSU's John McNally has won 9 straight and 16 of his last 17
  • OSU's Kyle Seelig has won 10 straight
  • OSU's Martin Joyce has won 17 of his last 19
  • OSU's Tim Seibert has won 6 straight (hasn't played since second round)
  • OSU's Joyce and Wolf have won 10 of their last 12 in doubles (lost last two)
  • OSU's Torpegaard and McNally have won 15 of their last 18 doubles matches
  • OSU's Hunter Tubert and Matt Mendez have won 13 of their last 14 in doubles ...
  • Who Wins: This should be an outstanding match between two teams looking for their first national championship. You have to think the crowd is going to play a role in this one because the stands should be overflowing when the doubles point gets started at 5 p.m. I'm going to take Wake in doubles because as with their match against Texas A&M I think the crowd will help push them over the top. In singles there aren't very many locks however I'd be surprised if either Petros Chrysochos or Christian Seraphim lost at No. 2 and No. 6. I like John McNally and Martin Joyce at No. 3 and No. 5 for Ohio State while the matches at No. 1 and No. 4 are near toss-ups. I'll go with Mikael Torpegaard at No. 1 but I'll take Bar Botzer at No. 4 for the clinch. Wake will win its first-ever national championship and it'll do it on its home court.
