Bertimon nets A-10’s top honor

Charles Bertimon has aced the tennis test at VCU. He’s all about scoring A’s in the classroom, too.

Bertimon was named Most Outstanding Performer after helping the Rams to a sixth straight Atlantic 10 Conference net title.

The graduate student from France also was named to the Conference’s All-Academic team, and has earned a master’s degree from VCU’s Center for Sports Leadership.

The 6-foot right-hander was 28-9 overall this season and 16-4 in dual matches. He and his brother, Max, were 17-9 overall in doubles and 13-5 in duals.

VCU wrapped up its latest A-10 title in Orlando with 4-0 shutouts of St. Joseph’s, Davidson and Dayton. The Rams lost to Mississippi in the first round of the NCAA Charlottesville Regional.

Charles Bertimon advanced to the NCAA Singles Regional in Orlando before falling to Texas A&M’s Noah Schachter.
