LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) – The UNLV men's tennis team opened its dual-match season Friday morning with a 4-0 shutout of New Mexico State at the Fertitta Tennis Complex.
Â
Playing the first of four matches over the next two days, the Rebels started by taking the first two completed doubles contests for a 1-0 lead. Moving to singles play, the hosts got a 6-0, 6-2 win by Jordan Sauer over Luis Flores on court three; a 7-5, 6-3 win by Milos Dabic over Timothee Curnier at the bottom of the lineup; and clinched things with a 6-2, 7-6 victory by Anton Ornberg over Martin Simecek at the fourth spot. The remaining three matches, which all split sets, were halted.
Â
REBEL OF THE MATCH: Jordan Sauer helped UNLV win a spirited doubles session with a victory at the top of the lineup with partner Alex Kobelt and then raced to a straight-set win in singles.
Â
NEXT FOR THE REBELS:Â UNLV will face UC Riverside Friday afternoon before staging another doubleheader Saturday vs. Pacific at 10 a.m. and Hawai'i at 2 p.m. Admission to all matches are free of charge.
