Men’s Tennis falls to two ranked opponents; picks up a conference win

By ERIN O’BOYLE

After eight straight home matches, the Drake men’s tennis team hit the road this past weekend to take on Oral Roberts University, Wichita State University on Friday in Wichita, Kansas and the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis on Sunday.

“I think a lot of us have been here long enough to have played enough away matches to know the procedure but still every road match is going to be tough,” senior Calum MacGeoch said about how traveling impacts the teams’ performance. “There’s no home crowd, you spend a lot of time on the road and in the bus which can be a little draining but we normally go a day or two early so everyone is accustomed is well rested and used to the courts.
