No. 16 Aggies Claim 4-3 Thriller Over Ole Miss
Feb 21, 2026 | Men's Tennis
BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION – The No. 16 Texas A&M men's tennis team opened SEC action with a 4-3 thriller over Ole Miss at the Mitchell Tennis Center Saturday afternoon.
Senior Togan Tokac handed the Rebels their first loss of the season after overcoming a first set deficit. With all eyes on him, the Turkey native was able to pull away in the neck-and-neck tussle with Benjamin Martin to clinch the victory 4-6, 7-5, 6-4.
The Aggies (8-3, 1-0 SEC) started from behind, only picking up a win on one doubles court. The No. 80 duo of Tokac and Theo Papamalamis picked up a ranked win over No. 40 Kai Milburn and Isac Stromberg, 6-4. Ole Miss picked up wins on court 3 and 1.
Ole Miss (12-1, 0-1 SEC) carried its momentum over to singles, grabbing court 3. The Aggies were able to respond when freshman Markus Molder picked up a straight set victory over Isac Stromberg on court 5, 6-3, 6-4. The Rebels responded with a win on court 4.
With Ole Miss up 3-1, No. 78 Papamalamis started to turn the tide in favor of the Aggies. The Frenchman delivered a straight set win over Stefano D'Agostino on court 1, 7-6(4), 6-4.
Junior Kholo Montsi tied things up at three-all after defeating Matthieu Chambonniere on court 2. After a close first set tiebreaker, Montsi was able to pull away to secure the point, (5)6-7, 6-3, 6-3. Tokac clinched the match shortly after.
The Maroon & White next head to Lexington to face the Kentucky Wildcats Monday at 1 p.m.
