Posted: Jul 21, 2019

For the second straight year Nico Mostardi was tabbed the Horizon League Men's Tennis Player of the Year, becoming the first Viking to be a two-time honoree and the sixth league player to earn multiple Player of the Year accolades.

Mostardi finished his junior season with a 24-10 singles record and a team-best 21-9 doubles mark, and became the first-ever Viking to earn an ITA Singles and Doubles National Ranking.

The 24 wins marked Mostardi's second straight 20-win campaign, as he became one of 11 Vikings all-time with multiple 20-win seasons.

Mostardi posted a perfect 7-0 record against league opponents throughout the spring season, including a victory in the tournament final that clinched the Horizon League Championship for the Vikings.

For his career, Mostardi ranks ninth on the CSU Singles Wins List with 70 victories, and is one of just three Vikings all-time to reach the 70-win milestone as a junior.
