HADLEY, MA – Two members of Dan Greenberg’s Williams men’s tennis team (11-6) that is headed to the NCAA Tournament this Saturday at Amherst College have been named All-NESCAC. Senior co-captain Nick Lebedoff (Minneapolis, MN) and first year Felix Sun (Potomac, MD) were both recognized in singles play.
Lebedoff added his second consecutive First Team Singles honor this spring after being named to the Second Team as a sophomore.
"Nick has been an amazing leader for this team, noted Greenberg. “He's found a way to win at every spot in the lineup over his career, and he's done so with class and competitive fire. He's really done a perfect job of representing his team and school. An All-NESCAC selection shows he represents the best of the conference, as well."

Lebedoff opened the season at #1 for the Ephs but recently has been playing at #2. He has compiled a 10-8 dual record this year and has a career mark of 56-30.
Felix Sun was named the NESCAC Rookie of the Year. Sun, a Second Team singles member this spring, has gone from the #3 spot to #1 in the Williams order and is 14-4 this year.
"Felix showed he was one of the best in the conference in the fall, even as a freshman, but he didn't rest on his laurels at all,” commented Greenberg. “He's worked hard all year and wants to be better every day. As great a debut as he's had, I'm very excited to see where his game will go. He's a special addition to the team."
