Ohio State tennis owns the Big Ten. 

After a 4-0 sweep of Purdue on Sunday, the Buckeyes clinched a third-straight undefeated regular season Big Ten title.

Including shared regular season crowns, Buckeye tennis stretched its streak to 13-straight becoming just the sixth program in any sport in Big Ten history to win 13-straight league titles. 

Ty Tucker's program has now gone undefeated in Big Ten regular season action in 12 of the last 13 years. 

No. 1 singles player Mikael Torpegaard improved to 24-6 on the season with a 6-2, 6-2 win over Mateo Julio while No. 2 singles player JJ Wolf dusted Maksymilian Paupuk 6-2, 6-0. 

No. 5 singles player Martin Joyce clinched the title with a 6-4, 6-3 decision over Renan Hanayama. 

Currently ranked No. 3 in the country with an overall record of 26-2 and a perfect 11-0 mark in conference action, the No. 1 seed Buckeyes will be in Iowa City next Thursday for the Big Ten Tournament, seeking a 13th postseason league title.
