Barris named to men’s tennis All-GLVC team

University of Southern Indiana Men’s Tennis senior Aaron Barris (Marietta, Georgia) was named to the All-Great Lakes Valley Conference team Thursday night, in an announcement by the conference after a vote by the league’s head coaches.

Barris is 17-11 in singles play this year, including 13-6 at number four along with a pair of wins at number three. He went 3-2 in GLVC matches.

In doubles, Barris teamed up with junior Samuel Kiladejo (London, England), where they are an impressive 17-5, 3-0 GLVC. The duo, which is on a six-game winning streak, went 5-2 at number one and 12-3 at number two.

Barris, who is 21-8 overall in doubles and 5-0 in the GLVC, combined with sophomore James Hardiman (Backwell Bristol, United Kingdom) to break the school record with 18-straight doubes wins earlier in the season.

The Screaming Eagles finished the regular season 16-9, 4-2 GLVC, and will take on Rockhurst University in the GLVC Championship quarterfinals at the Washington University Tao Tennis Center Friday at noon in St. Louis, Missouri, pending changes due to weather.
