The No. 4 Virginia men’s tennis team won 4-1 over No. 24 Notre Dame in the semifinals of the 2026 ACC Men’s Tennis Championship on Saturday at the Cary Tennis Park.

The second-seeded Cavaliers (22-3) punched their ticket to the final, where they’ll face top-seeded Wake Forest at 10 a.m. Sunday. Sunday’s final will air on ACCNX.

Notre Dame (21-7) began the match with a swift clinch of the doubles point, winning handedly on courts one and two.

The luck of the Irish was limited to doubles, however, as Virginia proceeded to win four consecutive singles matches in straight sets.

Senior Måns Dahlberg got the Cavaliers on the board with a 6-4, 6-2 win over Luis Llorens Saracho on six before No. 124 Jangjun Kim gave Virginia its first lead of the match with his decisive 6-3, 6-2 win over Peter Nad on four.

In rapid succession, No. 1 Dylan Dietrich sealed his 6-4, 6-2 win over No. 18 Sebastian Dominko on the top court to put the Hoos up 3-1. Finally, No. 48 Andres Santamarta Roig clinched the match for the Cavaliers with his 6-3, 6-4 win over Giuseppe Cerasuolo on three.
