MTEN | Thibaud Maxant and Finn Dyer Named Final 2026 WCC Doubles Team of the Week

SAN BRUNO, Calif. - The Saint Mary's men's tennis team will take some nice momentum into the 2026 West Coast Conference Tournament as doubles pair Thibaud Maxant and Finn Dyer were named the final WCC Doubles Team of the Week for their first weekly award of the season.
The duo have been the Gaels' top doubles team the entire season and picked up another two wins this past weekend, improving to a team best 11-8 this spring and helping the Gaels to two massive wins to clinch the sixth and final seed in the WCC Tournament. Maxant and Dyer started the weekend off with an intense tiebreaker victory against Pacific, defeating the Tigers top pair 7-6 (7-3). They concluded the weekend with a 6-2 win over Gonzaga that eventually led to a 4-0 sweep in favor of the Gaels.
Maxant and Dyer became the first WCC Doubles Team of the Week winners since Carlos Ramos Membrives and Ellison Greco won the weekly honor during the 2024 season. Saint Mary's has had three conference weekly award winners this season including a pair of Freshman of the Week honors from Sam Simmonds and Juan Pedro Etchecoin.
Head coach Dan Cardiff and his squad have won nine duals this season for the most wins in a single-season since 2013, when Saint Mary's finished the year 10-15. He'll look for the program's first conference tournament victory since that 2013 season when the Gaels knocked off Portland in the opening round. This year, the Gaels will take on Santa Clara in the opening round of the tournament on Thursday at 12 p.m.
