Huskies Close Season at Northwood

MIDLAND, Mich. – The Michigan Tech men's tennis team closed the weekend and the 2017 season on Saturday, falling at Northwood 9-0 in a Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference match.

Northwood (9-9, 5-3 GLIAC) stormed out of the gate with three straight 8-1 wins in the doubles portion of the contest to take a 3-0 lead going into singles play. Michigan Tech (1-12, 0-9 GLIAC) looked to regroup, starting with a No. 1 singles matchup between Mario Neto and Austin Woody. Neto stayed stride for stride with his opponent in both sets, but fell 6-3, 6-3 in each.

Tech's Ricardo Paes battled David Reinauer in the No. 3 spot of the lineup on Saturday.  Reinauer cruised to a 6-0 win in set one, but Paes regrouped during the break and nearly forced a tiebreaker with a strong set two performance. Reinauer ended up holding on for a 7-5 decision over Paes to secure the point for the Timberwolves, who went on for the 9-0 match win.
