Men's Tennis Falls to VCU in Starkville

Fourth Doubles Point Earned in Five Matches

STARKVILLE, Miss. - North Florida men's tennis (1-4) falls for the second time in as many days, as they fall to VCU (4-2) on Saturday evening on neutral grounds hosted by Miss State.

The Ospreys once again started off solid by winning the doubles point, which they have managed to do in four of their five matches this year. The ITA #56 ranked doubles pair of Jonas Hartenstein and Rodrigo Crespo got back to winning ways together by earning their doubles match 7-6 (7-5) after tiebreak. The third doubles pair of Spencer Dorosheff and PJ Kotan sealed the doubles point for the Ospreys when they won 6-3.

Senior PJ Kotan won his doubles match on court three due to a medical retirement from Oscar Pinto Sansano from VCU. Junior Breno Marques went to three sets for the second consecutive day, but wasn't able to get the job done today.

The Ospreys stay on the road and head to the Peach State to take on Georgia State next week on Saturday, Feb. 17, before playing Georgia on Sunday, Feb. 18.
