Correction... I was part author of a Tennis Week article on the Ohio State men's team that contained some inaccuracies. I regret any mistakes and would like to clarify: The Buckeyes were quarterfinalists at the NCAAs in 2004 & 2006, as well as this year; Ohio State men had their first top 10 finishes in the past two years, but they were in the top 25 the previous five years. I apologize that this wasn't clearly stated in the article. Marcia Frost
