Results

Murray State's men's tennis team concluded their road trip to the eastern part of Kentucky with a loss at Morehead State, 7-0. The loss puts MSU at 1-6 in the OVC and 3-12 overall.

The Racers fell behind quickly, losing the doubles point at all three positions. Adam Taylor and Max McLean's streak of three straight doubles wins from the first draw was snapped, when they fell 8-1 to Ji Hoon Heo and Jack Swindells.

In singles competition, it was Taylor who drove the Eagles' Swindells to three sets in the No. 1 position. Taylor lost a heartbreaking first set, 7-6, before pulling even with a 6-4 win in set No. 2. He couldn't keep the momentum going, losing the third set tiebreaker, 10-5.

The rest of Murray State's singles lineup fell in straight sets.

The Racers final match of the season will come Thursday, April 10 when they travel to Clarksville, Tenn. to take on Austin Peay. First serve is scheduled for 2 p.m.
