Men’s and Women’s Tennis Finish Season at BSC Tourney
The Montana State men’s tennis team saw its Big Sky Conference domination end with a 4-2 setback to Northern Arizona, Friday morning in the opening round of the league championship. MSU’s hopes for a fourth straight title ended as the Lumberjacks captured the doubles point, before winning at Nos. 5 and 6 to take a 3-0 advantage. The Bobcats answered as Kyle McDonald defeated Fernando Freitas 6-0, 6-1 at No. 2 singles, followed by Anton Leonenko’s 6-1, 6-4 victory over Michael Platzer at No. 3 to help MSU close the lead to 3-2.
The women’s tennis hopes for conference tourney success were also dashed by NAU. For the second time in less then a month the Northern Arizona women’s tennis team squeaked out a 4-3 win over Montana State. This time it was in the semifinal round of the Big Sky Conference tournament. The Montana State-Northern Arizona match came down to the No. 5 singles competition between Remy Clark and Lumberjack Paij Porter. Porter, a sophomore from Mesa, Ariz., pulled out a dramatic 6-4, 6-3 victory to send the Lumberjacks into the championship. The ‘Cats won their first round match with a 4-0 sweep of Weber State.
