THREE THINGS TO KNOW
- BACK IN BOISE: The Lopes will travel back to Boise, Idaho, for the first time since 2016, when the Lopes opened that season with a 5-2 loss to the Broncos. In that match, GCU graduate assistant Mathieu Rajaonah picked up a singles win in his first match with the Lopes.
- FIRST-TIME WINNERS: Despite four losses to start the season, Lopes newcomers picked up their first collegiate wins. In the season opener at BYU, freshman Loic Van Zeggelaar defeated his opponent 7-5, 6-4 at No. 6. Against Arizona on Tuesday, freshman Oliver Boleratzky won his match 7-5, 6-2 at No. 6.
- BUSY MONTH AHEAD: After the Lopes wrap up January with this trip, they will look forward to seven matches in February. The Lopes will host UC Riverside in back-to-back matches at the GCU Tennis Facility on Feb. 15-16 while playing matches at Arizona State, UC Irvine, New Mexico, Sacramento State, Santa Clara and UNLV.
SCOUTING
Montana started last season 1-3 but turned things around and ended the shortened season on a seven-match win streak. This year, the Grizzlies are picked to win the Big Sky regular-season title with only two players graduating from last year's squad.The Grizzlies also welcome Division II All-American Chase Bartlett, who comes to Montana with a 39-26 career record in singles and a 48-32 mark in doubles, while junior Oisin Shaffrey returns after a 9-2 singles record a year ago.
Boise State finished last season with a 7-6 record in the shortened 2020 season. The Broncos return six players from last year's squad, including four All-Mountain West honorees Simon Arca Costas, Blake Bayldon, Wyatt DeMulling and Kyryll Kryvchun with those four players combining for 70 singles wins.
The Broncos also welcome two transfers, Lawrence Sciglitano from George Washington and Lukas Ridemar from Idaho State. Sciglitano, a sophomore, comes to Boise with a 22-14 singles career record while Ridemar played at the top position in singles and doubles for the Bengals with 20 and 21 wins in singles and doubles, respectively.
WHAT'S NEXT
- GCU will travel to Tempe for a midweek match at Arizona State on Feb. 3.
