Two Illinois men’s tennis players remain in the ITA All-American Championship tournament in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Senior Julian Childers will participate in his first match Monday in the singles qualifying round while junior Alex Hiltzik will compete Thursday in the singles main draw.

A pool of five Illini players began the tournament, competing in the pre-qualifying singles round. Senior Alex Jesse and freshman Gui Gomes both progressed through the first matches in the round but fell in their second matches.
