Men's Tennis Continues Conference Play At Texas Tech

March 24, 2005 | Cowboy Tennis

Oklahoma State's 11th-ranked men's tennis team travels to No. 12 Texas Tech on Saturday for a 2 p.m. match at the McLeod Tennis Complex in Lubbock, Texas.

The Cowboys (11-4, 2-1) defeated Colorado, 4-3, on Tuesday in Boulder. Senior Boris Kuharic was the hero of the match, coming back from a 5-3 third set deficit to clinch the victory for the team.

The Red Raiders are 17-0 on the season and have yet to play a conference match. They are coming off an impressive 5-2 win over 32nd-ranked Clemson on Monday. Their No. 12 ranking is the highest in school history.

Bojan Szumanski is the top player for Tech, and will put his No. 23 national ranking up against junior Tomas Bohunicky at No. 2 singles. The Red Raiders are strong at the bottom of the lineup, where the Nos. 5 and 6 singles players sport a combined record of 23-1 on the season.

OSU has won the last two meetings between the schools, and holds a 12-4 advantage in the all-time series.
