GEORGETOWN, Texas - The Southwestern men's tennis team won five of six singles matches to secure a 6-3 win over the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor on Thursday afternoon. The win improves SU to 3-5 on the season.

Alex Lam (#1) won in a tie-breaker 6-4, 6-7, 10-6 over Will Summers to kick start things in motion for Southwestern. Alexander Reinsch kept the momentum going to win 6-3, 7-6 (8-6) over Garrett Baker in #2 singles. Andy Clarage outlasted Collin Davies in #3 singles to take the first set 7-6 (7-5) and then cruised to the win with a 6-0 victory in the second set.
