GROVE CITY, Pa. (April 17) – The Waynesburg University men's tennis team suffered a 9-0 loss to Grove City College in Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) action on Thursday in the final match of the regular season for both teams.

The loss drops the Yellow Jackets to 7-5 overall and 4-1 in league play, while the Wolverines improve to 13-6 and 5-0 in the PAC. Thursday's match was originally scheduled for March 25, but due to weather and court conditions the match was postponed three times.

Waynesburg fell behind 3-0 after losing all three doubles matches with freshmen Steve Bold (Aurora, Ohio/Aurora) and Emile Khoury (DuBois, Pa./DuBois) playing the closest match before losing to Ricky Garrett and Kyle Johnson at the No. 2 position, 8-2.

The Wolverines swept all six matches in singles play with the tightest match being at No. 5 singles. Senior Eric Schons (Pittsburgh, Pa./Montour), riding a four-match singles winning streak, dropped a 6-2, 6-4 contest to Marc Mentzer.

The Yellow Jackets return to action tomorrow, Friday, April 18, for the first day of the PAC Men's Tennis Championships, which are hosted at Pennbriar Athletic Club in Erie, Pa.
