ATLANTA -- After an impressive campaign, five Panthers earned All-Sun Belt honors and Vazha Shubladze was named the 2021 Sun Belt Player of the Year as the conference announced its postseason awards on Wednesday afternoon.

Shubladze is the first Panther to win a Player of the Year award since Nejc Podkrajsek was the CAA Player of the Year in 2008. Shubladze accumulated 13 wins in singles action this season all on the top court, including a perfect 4-0 performance in regular season conference action. Shubladze brought down four ranked opponents. In addition to his impressive singles play, the junior found success with partner Mihai Marinescu on the third court, registering eight victories. Additionally, Shubladze was twice named the Sun Belt Player of the Week. 

In addition to earning the top honor, Shubladze was named to the All-Sun Belt First Team Singles. Harvey Maughan, a junior transfer, also accumulated 13 wins in his first season in blue and white in route to being named to the All-Sun Belt Second Team Singles. The native of England represented the Panthers in nearly every position during singles action and was once named Sun Belt Player of the Week.

For the first time in Georgia State history two pairs were named to the All-Sun Belt First Team Doubles. Maughan and senior Kevin Huynh registered 11 wins, besting the No. 21 pair from South Florida. The duo went on two separate four match winning streaks throughout the season. Huynh and Maughan were tabbed as the No. 65 doubles team in the latest ITA rankings. Maughan is one of four players in the Sun Belt to be named All-Conference in both singles and doubles.

Andrei Duarte and Roberts Grinvalds led the team with 12 doubles victories, including impressive wins over the No. 39 ranked pair from Charlotte and No. 31 ranked duo from Georgia Tech. The pair was named the No. 86 doubles team in the latest ITA rankings. This marks the second time that Duarte has earned All-Sun Belt honors for his doubles play, as the senior earned a spot on the All-Sun Belt Second Team Doubles in 2018.
