Men's Tennis Falls to Visiting Xavier, 6-1

2.16.14 | Men's Tennis

PHILADELPHIA– Kristian Marquart was the lone Temple winner as the Owls' men's tennis team dropped a 6-1 decision to visiting Xavier on Saturday, February 15. The match with the former Atlantic 10 rival took place at the Legacy Youth Tennis and Education Center.
 
The Musketeers got on the board early with the doubles point. The visitors won at the first and second flights to take the 1-0 lead.
 
In singles action, Xavier took a 2-0 lead with a win at the second flight before Marquart made it 2-1 with his victory at No. 5. The junior captain was a 6-1, 6-1 winner over Matt Bishop. It was all Xavier from there, though, and the visitors walked away with the easy victory.
 
TU is next in action on Friday, February 21, when it travels to Lehigh to take on Stony Brook at 6:30 p.m.
