NEW ORLEANS — Xavier University of Louisiana's Manav Chakma is the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference Player of the Week in men's tennis for March 30-April 5.
Chakma, a junior from Agartala, India, and a graduate of Kendriya Vidyalaya Maligaon, was 2-0 in singles and 2-0 in doubles in Xavier's final two dual matches of its California trip. He scored two points for the Gold Rush in a 6-3 loss to NAIA No. 4 Vanguard, then did it again the following day in a 9-0 victory against then-No. 19 Lewis-Clark State.
Chakma and partner Tushar Mandlekar won all four of their doubles matches in California. They are 6-0 this season against the No. 2 doubles teams of top-10 NAIA schools.
It's the second consecutive week that the Gold Rush produced a first-time winner of the GCAC award. Adam Albrechtearned the honor the previous week.
Next for the XU men and women will be a 10 a.m. Saturday dual at West Florida.
