UT lost 3 matches in MAC play, and unfortunately 2 of them were to WMU, although the match at UT was really close. Hate to even mention how long it has been since UT won a MAC championship.

Those were the Brian Eisner coached teams that won four straight MAC titles and just dominated the league. Then Michigan swooped in and signed him. Considered by some as the best coach, regardless of sport, ever at UT.

Eisner's brother, Dean, won three MAC #1 titles and never lost a MAC singles match.
