Kentucky Men’s Tennis Wins Second Straight SEC Tournament Championship

Kentucky Men’s Tennis Wins Second Straight SEC Tournament Championship

For the second straight season, the Kentucky men’s tennis team is the best in the SEC. The Wildcats took down South Carolina 4-2 to win the program’s third-ever conference tournament title.

Kentucky improved to 24-2, 12-0 in SEC play. It’s the first time since 1992 that the Wildcats won both the regular season and conference tournament titles.

Charlie Cosnet, a sophomore from Le Mans, France, was named the 2024 SEC Tournament MVP. He was the only Wildcat who went 3-0 in singles play during the tournament at LSU. JJ Mercer was selected to the All-Tournament Team for racking up three doubles victories alongside Josh Lapadat, who earned MVP honors last year.
