Bubenicek earns his first-career Player of the Week selection after leading 58th-ranked Indiana to a double-header sweep of Morehead State and IPFW to open the dual-match season.

In the Hoosiers' 6-1 victory over Morehead State, the senior teamed with sophomore Peter Antons at No. 2 doubles to clinch to the doubles point with an 8-4 win. The pair added an 8-3 win over IPFW's Arturo Salgado and Nathan Jones in the afternoon match. Ranked 48th in the country, the Czech Republic native also earned back-to-back straight-set wins at No. 1 singles, defeating Morehead State's Jacob McLeod (6-4, 6-1) and Nabil Mourad Filho of IPFW (6-1, 6-0).

He is the first Hoosier player to claim the weekly honor since Jakub Praibis on Feb. 3, 2005.
