HONOLULU – The UC Davis men's tennis team needed two days to sort out its Big West opening match against Hawai'i, as weather played a factor in the two-day affair. The Aggies eventually fell, 5-2, on Saturday at the UH Tennis Complex.

Freshman Ryan Torres continued his impressive rookie season, dropping Blaz Seric in straight sets, 6-3, 6-4. Andras Necz earned the other singles victory, downing Karl Collins in a thriller, 6-7 (2-7), 6-4, 1-0 (10-7).

The Aggies will return home to face Weber State on Friday, April 1.
