Men's Tennis' Mokrzycki Earns Academic All-District Honor

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. -- Barry senior men's tennis player Marco Mokrzycki was named to the College Sports Information Directors of America Academic At-Large All-District Team.

Mokrzycki, a senior from Hannover, Germany, had a 3.41 grade point average in finance. He graduated from Barry two weeks ago, prior to helping the No. 1 Buccaneers win the NCAA Division II National Championship last week.

A Third-Team Academic All-America and all-district selection in 2012, Mokrzycki went 12-3 with an 8-3 record against nationally-ranked opponents in singles this year, and earned a No. 4 nation-wide ranking. He was 23-3 in doubles, which included a 21-3 mark with partner Fabian Groetsch at the No. 1 flight. Mokrzycki was 7-2 when competing against nationally-ranked pairs opponents, and he and Groetsch beat the No. 1 doubles team in the nation twice this year.

Mokrzycki broke the school's all-time doubles victories record, collecting his record-setting 79th win in the NCAA Championship match when he and Groetsch beat No. 1 Georgi Rumenov and Daniel Regan, 9-8 (7-1) to help the Buccaneers win it all.
