ATLANTA, Ga. – Competing in their lone tournament of the fall season, the Millsaps College men's tennis team won 11 combined singles matches at the 2008 Wilson/ITA Regional Championships at Emory University.

"It was a good first tournament," first-year head coach Jay Pacelli said. "Eleven total victories is not a bad start against some of the best teams in this region. Overall, I feel the guys played hard and admirably."

The weekend had its share of highlights, with sophomore Campbell Hughes advancing to the Round of 16 in the Main "A" Draw. Hughes won two matches over a pair of familiar conference foes in Centre and Rhodes College to finish 2-1 in singles play. 

Freshman David Bastain also had a solid weekend in his first collegiate action, winning the Consolation "A" Division with three consecutive wins after an opening match loss to Emory's Phillip Overdick.
