The men’s tennis team fell 9-0 to Edinboro University this past Saturday. The men teamed up with the women in a duel home match at Skytop Tennis Courts in conclusion of the 2012 fall season.

Le Moyne didn’t capture any points, but they sure put up a fight. Juniors Daryl Johnson and Alessandro Nieves teamed up at first doubles for the closest match of the day. The two lost 8-9 after losing the tie-breaker 3-7. The pairing of graduate student, Michael Green, and sophomore Shane Evans wasn’t enough to steal a point at second doubles; they fell 8-2. At third doubles the freshman pairing of Blaine Drake and Tyler Shaban lost 8-0.

Edinboro then swept the board in singles play, winning all six matches.

The men’s tennis team finished the fall season with a record 0-5, 0-4 in the NE-10. Their opponents weren’t the only challenge the men’s team had to face this season.

“We faced a lot of tough opponents as the season unfolded but our biggest opponent was starting over as a team,” said Nieves, team captain. “We have a no new recruits and a new coach so expecting any wins this year is a stretch. We’re working hard to prepare for the future and hopefully we can come back stronger in the spring.”
