KALAMAZOO, Mich. -- The thumb is feeling kind-of lonely.
That could change for Western Michigan University's men's tennis team this season as the Broncos go for their fifth straight Mid-American Conference regular season and tournament championship, thus earning one for the thumb. In the past four seasons in which the tournament was held (2020 was washed out because of COVID), WMU was 32-1 in league dual matches, the lone loss coming to Ball State last season.
The winter/spring season starts on Saturday at West Hills Athletic Club with matches against Butler at 10 a.m. and Illinois-Chicago at 3 p.
