Irving, Texas --- East Carolina senior Felipe Foseca has been named Conference USA Men's Tennis Athlete-of-the-Week.

Fonseca posted a 2-0 record in East Carolina's season opener en route to earning his first C-USA Men's Tennis Player-of-the-Week honor this year. The Pirates grabbed their first victory against James Madison (4-1) at the VCU 4x1 Invitational on Jan. 21, after suffering a season opening loss to Winthrop (2-3).
