CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Presbyterian College senior Max Benson claimed Big South Men's Tennis Player of the Week honors for his performance last week as announced by the league on Wednesday afternoon.
 
Benson is the third Blue Hose player to earn Big South Player of the Week honors this season after sophomore Sebastian Dominguez (January 19) and junior Georgije Babic (February 2) captured the league's weekly award earlier this season. Freshman Dusan Milanovic captured Big South Freshman of the Week honors on January 19.  
  
This is the third straight season that Benson has garnered Big South Player of the Week honors. In 2020, he was named Player of the Week on February 12. In 2021, he captured the award twice: February 24 and March 24.
