The eighth edition of the 2019 Tennis Channel/USTA College Tennis Top 25 Rankings were released on Wednesday, and there's a new No. 1 in the men's game.
There's a new No. 1 for the men, as the Texas Longhorns now find themselves in the top spot. Texas defeated Ohio State last week, which is what ultimately allowed the program to jump to No. 1. The Longhorns are now 16-1 on the season, and a big part of that is the fact that they have two players inside the ITA's Top 10 in men's singles. Also worth noting is that Florida moved from No. 8 to No. 4. The Gators had a big week, defeating Wake Forest, Georgia and Tennessee.
