Schreiner Cruises Past Sul Ross State Again

For the second time in a week, Schreiner Men's Tennis had an easy time with Sul Ross State.  The difference was that this 8-1 win counted in the ASC rankings.  Last week, SU won convincingly, 7-2, but it was played as a non-conference match.  On Friday, the Mountaineers officially christened the brand new Cree Tennis Center with an even easier win over the Lobos (0-1 in ASC).

Schreiner (1-0 in ASC) started the match with three wins in doubles action.  The closest match was at #2 doubles where sophomore Danny Okland and freshman Jesse McKinney earned a 9-7 win.  Both the #1 (freshman Trey Hernandez & sophomore Tory Manchester) and #3 (sophomores Jacob Chesnut and Stephen Franklin) won by 8-2 counts to put SU up 3-0.

In singles play, Hernandez won 6-2, 6-3 at #1, Okland cruised 6-1, 6-0 at #2, Chesnut was almost as dominant at #3, Manchester won at #4 (6-1, 6-4) and Franklin won 7-5, 6-3 at #5.  Only McKinney at #6 failed to get a point in singles. 

SU takes to the court tomorrow vs. Trinity in San Antonio in non-conference action.
