Space, thanks for posting these. I realize non-revenue sports don’t move the needle for a lot of folks. Coach Jimmy B has built an incredible program at MT. The atmosphere inside the ATC is electric!Blue Raiders win home opener against Michigan State - Middle Tennessee State University Athletics
No. 25 Middle Tennessee men's tennis sweeps all six singles matches to take a 6-1 victory over Michigan State on Friday.goblueraiders.com
Real proud of the 2 freshmen! Marcel clinched on court 5. Nice facility but not on par with the ATC.
Alpha, you at the match yesterday and today? If so that's awesome. Love the support of the program.Real proud of the 2 freshmen! Marcel clinched on court 5. Nice facility but not on par with the ATC.
Winston-Salem covered up with craft breweries downtown.🍺🍻👏
We are, pretty easy drive from ATL.Alpha, you at the match yesterday and today? If so that's awesome. Love the support of the program.
As an NCAA tennis novice I just checked out the men's top 25 for the 1st time. The array of teams in the top 25 for men's tennis is not unlike the top 25 in NCAA basketball or football. For those unaware the Raiders are in prime competition against schools such as Ohio St, Texas, North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Stanford, etc. Outside of your traditional Power 5 schools in the top 25 there are a couple of ranked Ivy League schools as well. However, no remaining G5 schools are to be seen on that impressive list other than Middle Tennessee. When looking at facility upgrades, athletes, & rankings quite an incredible accomplishment for what this young coach has done in his time here. Hat's off to you sir.

And I've been impressed with how they are keeping him here. He has been heavily involved in the design of the new on campus facility. Trusting coaches enough to include them in things like that is a great way to keep them.Jimmy is going to end up with a statue if he stays here long enough
Coach Hayes did have numerous offers throughout the years. It was crazy money bing offered and his wife did well in the boro.Reading coach Borendame's bio I see he's spent 12 years hear after coaching 1 year at Drake. He's been instrumental in fund raising over $7 million towards the development of MT's indoor & outdoor facilities. Not only does he appear to be a quality coach & recruiter, but must have some excellent administrative & interpersonal skills to complete these accomplishments.
I imagine he sees MT Tennis as his baby, & it would take an amazing offer to pull him from Murfreesboro.
I see coach Borendame as our Dean Hayes of Tennis. I'm sure Coach Hayes had multiple offers, but after a while when you decide to own something the way he did it literally becomes home. Wouldn't be surprised after so much personal investment Coach Borendame feels the same, it's home now.
That is the kind of coach a G5/mid-major whatever your word of the day is needs. Personable and outgoing.

He is the only head coach for MT that follows and interacts with me on Twitter. He is a great guy and has my full support (similar to Lee).Reading coach Borendame's bio I see he's spent 12 years hear after coaching 1 year at Drake.

Just another head scratcher by the league office. The Womens Tennis tournament seeds were also released. All 11 schools are playing in the conference tourney. The mens is only the top 6. The top 2 seeds get first round byes. Which makes perfect sense to me. In a conference with a ridiculous footprint ranging from Virginia across to New Mexico, then down to south Florida, flying non-revenue sport teams all over the place is silly. Why the inconsistency of all 11 Womens teams, as opposed to the top 6 in mens?Blue Raiders receive the No. 1 seed in the C-USA Tournament - Middle Tennessee State University Athletics
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — No. 28-ranked Middle Tennessee men's tennis were named the 1-seed in the Conference USA Tournament, the league office announced on Monday.goblueraiders.com

As a strong MT mens tennis fan, am glad we only need to win Saturday to play for the conference championship Sunday.
