Bulls badger Bison

Buffalo was anything but a cordial guest when the men's tennis team traveled to Bucknell this weekend, beating the Bison 6-1.

Mike Rockman led off the singles wins with a 6-1, 6-4 victory and carried his success into his doubles match with Albert Alant. The duo of juniors defeated Ryan Sandburg and John Lashnits of Bucknell, 8-6.

The top spot in the doubles competition was filled by Yules Hadisubroto and Nikesh Singh Panthlia and they claimed the victory, 8-6.

The Bulls won two of the three doubles matches and five of the six singles matches.

Buffalo faced Colgate Sunday afternoon but results were not available. The Bulls return home on Friday to host Western Michigan and Cornell at noon and 5 p.m., respectively.
