Third Sets Go Wrong Way For Men's Tennis In 4-2 Loss

The University of Illinois Springfield men's tennis program could not get the third sets to go their way on Sunday in Fulton, Mo. The Prairie Stars fell to NAIA nationally-ranked William Woods by a 4-2 margin.
 
UIS opened the day on a high note by winning the doubles point. Menno Servaes and Tomas Martinez had a 6-0 shutout win at No. 1 doubles, and Alex Chan and Oscar Toro clinched the point with a 6-4 victory at No. 3.
 
In singles, three of the five completed matches went to a third set. The Owls won all three of those matches for the two-point team victory. The lone singles victory for the Prairie Stars came from Rafa Rojas who won No. 4 by a 7-5 and 6-3 score.
 
UIS falls to 4-1 on the season. The Prairie Stars are at Olivet Nazarene next Friday.
