Kronauge won a total of four matches against No. 47 Iowa and Minnesota last weekend.  The sophomore claimed two wins at the top singles spot and a win at both No. 1 and No. 2 Doubles.  Against the Hawkeyes, Kronauge teamed with Drew Eberly to knock off the duo of Gregory Holm and Walker Grimes at No. 2 Doubles, 8-3.  He then went on to defeat Bart van Monsjou of Iowa, 3-6, 7-6 (10-6).  Against Minnesota, the Dayton, Ohio, native teamed with Eberly again, this time at No. 1 Doubles, to earn an 8-0 win over Raoul Schwark and Tobias Wernet.  He ended his perfect weekend with a No. 1 Singles victory over Shwark in straight sets, 6-1, 6-1.  This is Kronauge's second career weekly laurel.
