TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – The Alabama men’s tennis team advanced a singles player and doubles pairing to the semifinals at the ITA Fall Regional Championships.

Matic Kriznik won in straight sets, downing Amirkamza Nasridinov from Auburn in a 6-4, 6-3 victory to earn his spot in the semifinals.

The doubles duo of Jacob Olar and Andrii Zimnokh battled through the round of 16 and quarterfinals to reach Monday’s semifinal match.

Olar and Zimnokh would mirror the result against Rapael Vaksmann and Roberto Ferrer Guimareaes from Mississippi State, defeating the Bulldogs with an 8-4 effort.
