If successful, the two Govs will advance to the qualifying portion of the schedule, with consolation and main draw stages beyond that.
This will be the first ITA All-American Championships for both players, who have been APSU’s top two players this season. Jumonville opened the fall slate at No. 1 in the order, and is 1-2 to start the year after a win over UAB’s Luiz Pinto at the Dale Short Shootout last weekend.
Montenegro is off to a slow start with a 0-3 record, but has only competed as the No. 2 beginning this year after an 8-1 Ohio Valley Conference record a season ago.
Austin Peay has sent participants to the Midwest event in each of the last two seasons, but are seeking its first advancement beyond prequalifying. Two Govs – Iago Seffrin and Aleksas Tverijonas – entered the field in 2014, while the trio of Jasmin Ademovic, Dimitar Ristovski and Tverijonas did so the previous year.
