Men’s Tennis Drops Heartbreaker to Bonnies

Saints lose tie-breaker on court #6

Locked at three wins apiece, Siena Men's Tennis lost a heartbreaker to St. Bonaventure 4-3 with a third set tie-breaker defeat on singles court #6 at Tri-City Fitness on Friday night. 

Prior to the start of their match against the Bonnies, four student-athletes were honored in a Senior Day celebration. Among those honored were fifth-year student-athlete Tomas del Olmo and seniors Matt Nardone, Marvin Oberli and Agustin Suarez.

The Saints (8-7) got off to a solid start, winning all three doubles matches, to take the first point.  Nardone and Suarez beat Archie Graham and Rasmus Egehus 6-4, Dante Russo and Andrea Moro followed with a 7-6 (1) triumph over Connor Turner and Anargha Ganguh while del Olmo and Jose Pablo Davila teamed up to topple Norka Sanchez and Hugo Cochlin 7-5 to sweep the doubles action. 

Russo kept it going with a 6-3, 6-1 victory over Graham from the singles #1 spot, but the Bonnies (7-7) responded with three straight wins to take a 3-2 edge.

Suarez rallied past Turner 6-7 (7), 6-1, 10-7 to give the Saints one last opportunity, but Oberli took a narrow defeat against Luke Young in a 10-8 third set tie-breaker. 

Siena will next host Monmouth (8-4) on Sunday at 1:45 p.m. at Tri-City Fitness in Latham.
