'Roos Roll over Gents 9-0

SHREVEPORT, LA – The Austin College Men's Tennis Squad picked up their first 9-0 victory of the year over SCAC opponent Centenary College.

            The Men got out to a strong start in doubles play over the 'Gents, sweeping doubles for only the second time this year while dropping only two total games.  Ambulo/Meendsen notched their second win this season on the doubles court together, but look to be a new and improved team hitting their stride with conference championships fast approaching.

            Not much changed for the 'Roos in singles competition as the 3-0 lead after doubles play translated into the second phase of the match.  Four Kangaroo Men's Tennis Players registered wins without dropping a game, and Cedric Ambulo picked up his second win of the year 6-1, 6-3. 

            Austin College is scheduled to face LeTourneau University tomorrow in Longview, TX, but scheduling conflicts and weather threaten to end the 'Roos regular season prematurely.  Follow the match updates and all live-tweets of team matches on Twitter: @ACRoosMWTennis
