Tennis Channel/USTA College Tennis Top 25 Rankings: Mar. 13
Ohio State is still going strong as the No. 1 in the men's game, and the same goes for Georgia in the women's game.
The seventh edition of the 2019 Tennis Channel/USTA College Tennis Top 25 Rankings were released on Wednesday, and there was some solid movement outside of the Top 10.
One of the most significant moves in the men's game this week came from Georgia, which now finds itself inside the Top 25. Freshman Trent Bryde helped by leading the Bulldogs to a 5-2 win over LSU, which was ranked No. 25 at the time. Meanwhile, nothing inside the Top 10 changed too drastically. Florida moved up from No. 9 to No. 8, swapping places with Columbia. But outside of that, everything remained the same. However, Ohio State did lose to No. 20 Texas A&M on Monday night. That means there should be a new No. 1 next week.

There was some Pac-12 movement in the women's game this week, as both Cal and USC helped themselves in conference play. Cal beat Oregon to move from No. 19 to No. 16, and USC beat Arizona to go from No. 24 to No. 21. In the Top 10, Michigan and UCLA swapped spots. That means the Bruins are now No. 8 in the country. Also worth noting is the fact that Tennessee is into the Top 25.
