SPOKANE, WASH. – Seattle U men's tennis entered Saturday hoping to put it all together against a powerful Gonzaga team; however, at the end of the day, the Zags beat the Redhawks 4-0 in a shortened match.
In doubles play, seniors Trenton Nield and Alex Chan teamed up against Gonzaga's Sam Feit and Matthew Hollingworth in the number one slot, posting a 3-6 result. Senior Adrian Alvarez Sanabria and freshman Lars Schmassmann gave Matthew Perkins and Bryan Husin a run for their money, but ultimately fell 1-6. Juniors Emilio Monroy and Colton Weeldreyer matched up against Simon Homedes Dualde and Hunter Egger of Gonzaga, but the doubles point was clinched for the Zags before they could finish their bout, which had a score of 2-5 at the time.
Chan started off singles play with a 1-6, 0-6 result against Egger, followed by Monroy's 1-6, 2-6 match against the Zags' Kyle Everly. Weeldreyer's 0-6, 1-6 final against Oliver Andersson of Gonzaga was the last match of the night to finish as the Zags clinched the team win, but Alvarez Sanabria (4-6, 2-3 unfinished) was putting up some promising numbers against opponent Perkins. Schmassman (2-6, 2-5 unfinished) and Nield (1-6, 2-5 unfinished) rounded out the field, facing Brandon Park and Vincent Rettke, respectively.
Next, the team heads to Colorado Springs, Colo., for a match against Air Force on Feb. 28. Play will begin at 11:00 a.m. PT.
