Men's Tennis Falls At George Fox In NWC Play

NEWBERG, Ore. - After taking down Whitworth in its league opener, the Whitman College men's tennis team ran into a buzzsaw, falling 9-0 at George Fox in Northwest Conference action on Sunday at the Multi-Use Facility.

The match featured two of the top Northwest Conference teams, but the Bruins, who had been picked to win the league, were clearly the better side on the day. Whitman fell behind the eight ball after losses on the No. 3 then No. 1 doubles courts. John Carter and Kai Strawn dropped their one doubles match before Noah Baker and Braedan Thomas fell at the three.

The two doubles team of Lucas Huang and Harshvardhan Chopra nearly got the Blues back in the match, but fell 8-6 at the two to the Bruin tandem of Rox Rogers and Luis Rojas.

George Fox swept single play en route to the win. The most competitive match came on the No. 5 court when Thomas fell in three sets to Ryan Olsen 6-7 (7-2), 6-2, 11-9.

The Blues return home for their next match when they host Pacific Lutheran on Saturday, March 12 at 11:00 a.m.
