Cavalier freshmen notch doubles title in Palm Springs

The No. 10 Virginia men's tennis team rounded up play at the prestigious National Collegiate Tennis Classic in Palm Springs, Calif. last weekend by winning the doubles championship. Freshmen Somdev Devvarman and Treat Huey were the victorious duo for the Cavaliers.

Devvarman and Huey upset two top 20 teams en route to the championship. They toppled Roger Matalonga and Colin O'Grady of No. 20 Arizona, 8-2, in the title match and took down the doubles team from No. 6 UCLA in the quarterfinals.

Virginia also produced three of the four finalists in the singles backdraw. In the final, Devvarman topped his partner Huey 7-6, 6-4.
