NORFOLK, Va. – Norfolk State star Federico Rebecchini has been named to the All-MEAC Second Team, the conference announced on Tuesday. It is the second consecutive season Rebecchini has earned All-MEAC honors.
 
The Verona, Italy native has shouldered the load of No. 1 singles for the Spartans the entire season, posting a 7-7 record in that department and a 4-6 total at No. 1 doubles. He recorded singles victories against Longwood, Loyola Maryland, Howard, Coppin State, Hampton, and Virginia State, earning MEAC Men's Player of the Week honors on Apr. 13.  
 
The award marked Rebecchini's second All-MEAC selection, receiving first team honors as a junior. He becomes the first NSU men's tennis player to land on an All-MEAC team in consecutive seasons since Daniel Grauel in 2014 and 2015.
 
The Spartans will return to the court on Thursday at Cary Tennis Park for the MEAC Tennis Championships. NSU will face Howard in the first round at 2 p.m.
