UC Davis, Savkin Excel at Aggie Invitational

DAVIS, Calif. — Aggie Ivan Savkin, making his collegiate career debut, won two finals matches this weekend at the Aggie Invitational. The freshman swept through his singles division, Flight C, and championed the tournament doubles competition alongside partner Ryan Torres

On the whole, home court advantage seemed to serve the UC Davis men's tennis team well, as Brett Brinkman and Constantinos Djakouris were finalists in each of the other two singles flights. 

Newcomer Antreas Djakouris advanced to the Flight A singles semi finals.

The Aggie Invitational included top competition from around Northern California. Invited teams were: Sacramento State, Santa Clara University, the University of the Pacific, the University of San Francisco, Cal, the University of Nevada, Reno.

UC Davis will hope to keep their momentum rolling as they head to Berkeley this weekend for the ITA Northwest Regional.
