DAVIS, Calif. – The UC Davis men's tennis team split its home opening weekend, defeating American River College, 7-0, and dropping a heartbreaker to Nevada, 4-3. Â
The Aggies raced out to an early lead on their home court against Nevada, earning the doubles point and then splitting the first four singles matches, before eventually falling in tightly contested fashion down the stretch. Juniors Andrei Volgin and freshman Ryan Torres earned the singles victories against the Wolfpack. Both were part of winning doubles as well.
UC Davis handled nearby American River College in straight sets, rebounding in the afternoon after the tight defeat against Nevada.
The Aggies will hit the road once again, heading west to face Stanford on Wednesday, Feb. 9. Â
