Midwestern State 6, CSU-Pueblo 3
PHOENIX, Ariz. - Despite claiming two out of three in doubles
competition vs. 28th-ranked Midwestern State (Tex.) Thursday, the
Pack men's tennis team fell six matches to three in Phoenix, Ariz.
Led by number-one doubles combo Beau Fresquez (Sr.,
Pueblo, Colo.) and Ricardo Oaxaca (Jr.,
Puebla, Mexico), the Pack claimed one match a slim 9-8
victory, carried by a 7-3 tiebreaker.
Philipp Penkatzki
(Sr., Bottrtop, Germany) and Andres Morales (Jr.,
Puebla, Mexico) added to the advantage, scoring an 8-4 win
in the number-two doubles match.
But the ThunderWolves' fortunes mostly stopped there.
Aside from a 6-3, 6-3 win by Oaxaca in the number-three singles
match, the Pack was on the short end of a few slim matches that
would have tipped the balance of the match in the Pack's favor.
CSU-Pueblo will continue on its five-match swing in Phoenix when
it takes on Cal Poly and 18th-ranked UC-San Diego.
