The Big South’s men’s tennis individual championships are set for Oct. 23-25 at Rock Hill Tennis Center in South Carolina. NJIT enters the 16-player singles draw with two athletes and the eight-team doubles draw with two pairs; the singles and doubles champions earn spots at the ITA Conference Masters Championships.

By the Numbers
  • Oct. 23-25: tournament dates.
  • 16 singles entrants and 8 doubles teams.
  • 2 NJIT singles players and 2 NJIT doubles pairs.
Yes, But

Seeds are based on overall WTN rankings, and players from the same school are kept apart in the first two singles rounds. If a seeded player withdraws with an injury, the next eligible alternate takes that spot.

State of Play
  • NJIT’s Arijan Kaliterna is the top singles seed; teammate Riccardo Campagnola is seeded fourth.
  • NJIT’s top-seeded doubles team is Soma Fukuhara and Arijan Kaliterna; Yerassyl Bakhtiyar and Campagnola are seeded second.
  • Singles and doubles finals are scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 25.
What's Next

First-round doubles matches begin Friday at 11 a.m., followed by singles play at 12:30 p.m. The singles and doubles champions will advance to the ITA Conference Masters Championships, and the doubles runner-up also earns an invitation.

Bottom Line

NJIT has strong positioning in both draws, including the top two doubles seeds, but must convert that advantage into wins to secure postseason opportunities.
