SAINT PETER, Minn. – The Gustavus men’s tennis team took a pair of wins on Saturday sweeping conference opponent Concordia 9-0 and topping the Luther Norse 8-1. With the win the Gusties improve to 9-4 overall and 3-0 in the MIAC.
“The guys put together a string effort all day today,” said Head Coach Tommy Valentini. “They stayed present and played solid tennis this morning against Concordia, and this evening against Luther they set the tone with good energy in the doubles. We were very good tactically there and the momentum from the sweep helped us heading into the singles. We’re thankful for two good team wins and for how we competed. We’ll look to rest up from here and prepare ourselves for a fun and challenging spring trip.”
