Men's Tennis Falls at No. 10 Ohio State

COLUMBUS - The Xavier men's tennis team opened the 2016 dual match season with a 4-0 setback at No. 10 Ohio State, Wednesday evening in the state capital.

Matt Bishop spoke on the match, stating, "I thought we played well as a team. Ohio State really puts things into perspective, and let's us know what we need to work on. The spring is going to be exciting because we are a younger team, but all of our guys love to work hard. That is really what is going to help us edge out our opponents in these upcoming matches."

The Musketeers will take the court again, Friday evening, against Austin Peay in Clarksville, Tennessee. Dual match play will begin at 5 p.m.
