HARRISONBURG, Va. – James Madison junior Holden Koons has been recognized as the Colonial Athletic Association Men's Tennis Player of the Week, the league announced Wednesday.
Â
Koons went 2-1 at #1 singles last week, helping JMU to wins against in-state foe Radford (6-1) and Northern Illinois (4-3) in a neutral-site matchup.
Â
He opened last week with a thrilling 6-4, 6-7 (3), 7-6 (3) victory against Radford's Demis Taramonlis to clinch the decisive point to put JMU ahead 4-1. In Saturday's against NIU, he rallied from a set deficit to defeat Kristopher Ortega, 2-6, 6-2, 6-3 to clinch the 4-3 win. On Sunday at Youngstown State, he dropped a three-set decision to Laurentiu Mandoescu.
Â
He also picked up a 7-5 doubles win with Youssef Sadek over RU's Taramonlis and Andres Silva to clinch the doubles point.
Â
This is Koons' second CAA honor of the season, as he and Sadek were Doubles Team of the Week on Jan. 26. This is his third ever CAA Player of the Week accolade and the fifth overall conference weekly award of his career.
Â
JMU (6-1) returns to action on Saturday, Feb. 26 with a trip to Williamsburg to face William & Mary at 11 a.m.
