NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Vanderbilt doubles pair of junior Jeremie Casabon and senior Siim Troost will represent the Commodores at the NCAA DI Doubles Championships in Orlando, Florida. The No. 19 Dore duo will open tournament play tomorrow in the Round of 32 against No. 30 Andres Martin and Marcus McDaniel of Georgia Tech. Due to weather in Orlando, match times for tomorrow have not yet been released.
Casabon and Troost finished 17-7 overall on the season, going 7-3 in SEC play. Notable victories for the Dores include defeats over then-ranked No. 74 Arkansas, No. 44 Mississippi State, No. 40 Texas A&M, No. 25 Kentucky, No. 18 Florida and No. 11 Georgia.
Georgia Tech’s Martin and McDaniel concluded the season 10-7 overall, 1-5 in ACC play. The Yellow Jackets’ success includes victories over then-ranked No. 3 South Carolina and No. 24 Georgia.
Last November at the Georgia Tech Invitational, Casabon and Troost competed against Martin, who was then paired with Yellowjacket teammate, Rohan Sachdev. The contest saw the Dores claim the slim victory by a score of 8-7 (7-4).
