BOCA RATON, Fla. – The top doubles pairing for the Florida Atlantic University men's tennis team,
Jason Legall and
Ignacio Garcia, have been vaulted into the national Oracle/ITA doubles rankings for the first time, slotting in at No. 69.
The duo becomes the first Owls in over a year to hold a national ranking, following in the footsteps of
Remi Chancerel and
Gabriel Sidney (in late February of 2018). Legall and Garcia have paired at No. 1 this season for all but two dual match contests. The sophomores have posted a 13-6 doubles record together, including wins in each of their last four outings (and seven of their last eight). Click the following link to view the entirety of the
