SPARTANBURG, S.C. – ETSU’s Robert Herrera has been named the Southern Conference Men’s Tennis Player of the Week for all matches played through Feb. 7. Herrera is 5-1 in singles competition and has posted a mark of 4-2 in doubles play as the Bucs have opened the season 3-3.

Competing at No. 4 singles, Herrera has won his last four matches, all of which have come in straight sets. After falling to No. 103 Jon Ho (1-6, 6-7) of Wake Forest last month, the Barcelona, Spain, native defeated Washington’s Sebastian Hawkins (6-3, 6-3), Penn’s Josh Pompan (6-2, 6-3), Portland’s Felix Fan (6-1, 6-2) and Appalachian State’s Jan-Willem Kleynhans (6-4, 6-1).
