Bobcats Finish Fall Season at Gonzaga - Montana State University Athletics

BOZEMAN, Mont. (Nov. 11, 2026) – Montana State won 19 of its 33 matches during a "very successful" weekend in Spokane at the Gonzaga Invitational.

Bobcats Eddie Biss and Andre Stewart combined to win the Flight A doubles competition, and David Ismanescu and Oumar Diallo finished second in Flight B doubles. Reuben de Klerk and Gareth Igesund finished with a 2-1 doubles record on the weekend, as did Max Calaquian and Ethan Masselis.

"We played really well and it was a very successful weekend all the way around," said Bobcats head coach Mateus Ceolin. "We worked hard on doubles throughout the fall, and that showed up this weekend."

Montana State also showed well in singles competition against a field that included regional powers Oregon and Gonzaga and Big Sky rivals Portland State and Idaho. Calaquian won two of his three matches, while Masselis and de Klerk each finished with 2-2 records. Every Bobcat except Ismanescu won at least one singles match, and Ismanescu played only one in his fall debut. Diallo also made his fall debut.

"Andre Stewart and Eddie Biss both played really well," Ceolin said. "They all had good moments playing singles, and competed well. This was a good way for us to finish our fall season."

The Cats finished with a 19-14 record at the Gonzaga Invitational. Full results are below.
