Men' Tennis Falls to Cal Poly

MILWAUKEE?In the final day of competition, the Marquette men?s tennis team was defeated, 4-0, against Cal Poly in their quest for 9th place at the Boise State Spring Tournament. Their record drops to 10-10 on the season.

The Marquette duo of Brett Binkley and Pete Van Lieshout were the only doubles team to come up with a victory, taking down Cal Poly?s Travis Crawford and David Jones, 8-6.

?We came out flat in doubles,? said Coach Steve Rodecap. ?It cost us a little bit. We were in a corner and couldn?t dig ourselves out of a hole.?

Heading into singles down 1-0, the Golden Eagles lacked the intensity they needed to come up with any victories in singles play. Troy Delmege was outplayed at No. 2, losing to John Nguyen, 6-2, 6-2. Greg Sirotek played the No. 2 spot, but came up short against Jones, 6-3, 6-2.

?Cal Poly is a good team, well coached,? Rodecap said. ?They deserved to win today.?

Marquette will head to Florida, April 1-3, where they will face USF, Jacksonville, and St. Leo.
