Chris Paterakos Named Midwest Conference Performer of the Week

Lake Forest College tennis player Chris Paterakos (Wilmette, Ill./New Trier) was named Midwest Conference Performer of the Week on Tuesday (April 20) for his performance in a perfect 6-0 week for the Foresters.

Paterakos, a junior, teamed with senior Joe Campagna to defeat the #2 doubles teams of all six opponents on the week. They posted victories over Aurora University on Tuesday, Milwaukee School of Engineering on Thursday, Monmouth College and Carroll University on Saturday, and Elmhurst College and St. Norbert College on Sunday by a combined score of 48-10.

While he usually competes at #5 singles, Paterakos moved up to #4 in all but one of his singles matches on the week and still posted a 5-0 record and did not lose a set.

Paterakos is now 16-4 in singles and 20-4 in doubles this season.

MWC Performers of the Week are selected by the league's sports information directors.
