WASHINGTON – Georgetown University men's tennis player Jake Fellows was named the BIG EAST Singles Player of the Week on Monday as announced by the league. This is the sophomore's second Singles Player of the Week award and third weekly award this season. 

"Jake had a great weekend for our team," said Head Coach Freddy Mesmer. "His first time stepping up to play the number one spot and he has earned it. Jake's hard work off the court is starting to pay off and I'm excited to see how he finishes the season."

This season Fellows has earned 10 singles wins at the number two spot and picked up two straight victories in the number one spot en route to a Hoya win over Howard and DePaul this weekend.
