MSU lost in competitive fashion at Gonzaga before sweeping Whitworth
Montana State split a pair of men's tennis matches in Spokane on Saturday, falling 4-0 to Gonzaga before beating Whitworth 7-0.
While the Cats lost the doubles point and all three of the singles matches played to conclusion in the morning at GU's Stevens Center, five of the six singles matches were closely contested. Jamieson Nathan was up a set and tied 3-3 in the second when Gonzaga clinched the result, ending the competition, and Brad Buckland was tied 1-1 and up 1-0 in the third.
The Bobcats swept through the evening match against the Division III Pirates without dropping a set. Marcos Zelver and Jacob Huppin each won their 2022 singles debuts with straight-set victories.
"Overall it was a good day," said MSU coach Trey Morris. "Of course we are disappointed with the result against Gonzaga. However, this season is long and the team and boys are getting better each match. Today we had clear goals and areas to which we wanted to improve coming off of Air Force and today I feel we did that We are looking forward to the conference opener tomorrow at Eastern Washington."
The Bobcats square off with Eastern Washington at 12 noon MT in Cheney on Sunday.
