Bjerrehus, ranked 37th in the ITA standings, is making his first trip to the NCAA singles event after putting together a strong season for the Hokies. Playing in the No. 1 and No. 2 singles for Tech this season, Bjerrehus has tallied a 16-6 record, including seven wins over nationally ranked foes this season. Bjerrehus is 12-2 at the No. 2 and has posted a 24-10 overall record dating back to fall tournament play.

Prior to the start of the singles event, Bjerrehus will join his teammates in hosting the opening rounds of the 2015 NCAA team championships as the Hokies earned the No. 15 seed in this year’s tournament.
