IRVINE Calif. β UC Irvine men's tennis is back in action this weekend, traveling to the Jack Kramer Collegiate Invitational at the Jack Kramer Club in Rolling Hills Estates. The tournament runs Friday through Sunday and will use a hidden dual format.
The 'Eaters will send four players to compete in the hidden dual, with the lineup featuring Yashwin Krishnakumar, Nathaniel Suh, Dev Mangat, and Mason Bui.
LAST TIME OUT
The 'Eaters competed at the ITA Southwest Regional Championships in Malibu, Calif., earning 13 singles victories during qualifying and main draw competition. Six Anteaters advanced through qualifying to the main draw Round of 64, with Yashwin Krishnakumar and Greg Gamal each earning a victory to advance to the Round of 32.
Krishnakumar rallied past UCLA's Lev Seidman in three sets, 3-6, 6-4, 6-2, while Gamal defeated San Diego's Lambert Ruland in straight sets, 6-4, 6-4. Both Anteaters were eliminated in the Round of 32, with Krishnakumar falling to Hawai'i's Soeren Grandke and Gamal dropping his match to Arizona's Sasha Rozin.
In extra singles action, Ruining Huang recorded two victories, rallying past San Diego's Nicola Baena, 2-6, 7-5, 10-4, and UC Santa Barbara's Felipe Vazquez, 2-6, 6-2, 10-8. Nathaniel Suh also earned a win over Cal Poly's Leo Matthysen, 6-2, 7-6 (7-4). The Anteaters competed in four main draw doubles matches, with all four pairings falling to their respective opponents.
A LOOK AT THE LINEUP
The Anteaters have seen strong contributions from their underclassmen throughout the 2026 fall slate, with freshmen Yashwin Krishnakumar and Dev Mangat leading the way in singles victories. Junior Mason Bui and sophomore Nathaniel Suh have also join the 'Eaters lineup for this weekend.
Krishnakumar has recorded four singles victories and one doubles win in his first season with the Anteaters.

Krishnakumar had an impressive showing at the regional tournament, also advancing to the Round of 32.
Mangat has also made an immediate impact, posting a 4-3 singles record and a 2-2 mark in doubles. The freshman earned singles victories against Navy and Oregon at the San Diego Veterans Tennis Classic and helped UCI secure a 5-1 victory over Washington to close out the tournament. In doubles, Mangat has partnered with Alex Guajardo to earn key victories, including a win over Oregon and a 6-2 decision against Washington.
Bui begins the season with two singles victories and a 0-1 doubles record. The junior has competed in both the UCSB Fall Invite and the ITA Southwest Regional Championships. At the regional tournament, Bui earned two victories in qualifying singles to secure his place in the main draw Round of 64, defeating Loyola Marymount's Darius Tamaddon and Hawai'i's Kosuke Nakanishi.
Suh has recorded two singles victories and one doubles win while continuing to develop his game in his sophomore season.
