Men's Tennis Evens Out in First Landmark Road Weekend Series

SELINSGROVE, PA – The Susquehanna University men's tennis team embarked on their first Landmark Conference road trip this weekend, breaking even by rebounding from an 8-1 defeat at Drew on Saturday with a 6-3 victory at Elizabethtown Sunday. The River Hawks earn their first Landmark win of the young conference season with a ten-day break ahead of them. They return to play hosting Juniata on Wednesday, April 3.

DREW 8, SUSQUEHANNA 1
Despite being sheltered inside the Simon Forum to avoid the inclement weather, the River Hawks were drenched by swift Rangers wins. Accounting for Susquehanna's strong matches was at three doubles, where the team of Owen Miller and Daniel Murphy nearly had a bid over Ian Michel and Jack Polvere, coming down to a tiebreaker that saw the Drew team win 8-7 (7-6). Murphy would gain the team's lone win in the six singles matchup with Josh Kline, winning 8-6.

SUSQUEHANNA 6, ELIZABETHTOWN 3
Though the Blue Jays gained victories in the top doubles and singles spots, it was Susquehanna that displayed the depth to take the majority of the wins. The River Hawks earned doubles wins at two and three, where the team of Tim Basta and Gavin Ream won at two 8-1 and Owen Miller and Daniel Murphy at three, 8-5. E-Town won at one and two singles, but Susquehanna prevailed in the remaining four singles matchups handily to take the victory. Miller and Murphy made it a perfect day in their respective three and six singles matched, with Miller winning 6-2 and 6-1, along with Murphy with 6-0 blanks. Thomas Hallahan picked up the four singles wins by matching 6-3 scores, while at fives Ream came out on top, 6-1 and 6-4.
