Men's Tennis Falls To George Fox

WALLA WALLA, Wash. - The Whitman College men's tennis team led after doubles but were swept in singles in a 7-2 loss to George Fox in Northwest Conference action on Friday afternoon at the Bratton Indoor Tennis Center.

The Blues (5-13, 5-2 NWC), who currently sit in third in the league standings, looked sharp after taking a one-point lead into singles play. Noah Baker and Diego Guzman struck first with an 8-5 win at the one over Austin Stone and Eli Mizerski. The Blues then secured that lead after Charles Rush and Artem Manov won by the same score at the three.

The Bruins salvaged a point with a win on the No. 2 court. Caden Camacho and Jackson Whittaker took down the Blues pair of Lucas Huang and Aidan Schutter, 8-6.

Singles play saw a clean sweep by George Fox. The clinching point for the Bruins was a difficult one however. At the three, Huang won a first-set tiebreaker over Lars Schmassmann but eventually fell in three sets 6-7 (1), 6-4, 6-1.

The Blues are back in action on Saturday with back-to-back non-conference matches, both against Lewis-Clark State College. Match times are set for 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.
