Men’s tennis extended their win streak to three games as they took down conference opponent the Toledo Rockets on Saturday.

The Huskies (17-5, 3-1MAC) defeated the Rockets (11-14, 1-2 MAC) 5-2 on Saturday in Toledo, Ohio.

“We set the tone [Saturday] in doubles,” said head coach Patrick Fisher. “Then from the five and six position we really dominated, but Toledo didn’t go down easy as they gave us a little run at the end. We knew they was going to make a run so we [were] prepared.”

Fisher said the team’s confidence is high. They now control their own destiny to win the MAC regular season championship for the second-straight year.

The Huskies’ next game is April 19 in Buffalo, NY. They will play a hungry Buffalo team that has lost six-straight games and needs a win to stay in playoff contention.

“I feel Buffalo is always a tough trip,” Fisher said. “They’re in a really desperate position. They’re 0-2 in the conference and we know that we’re going to get their absolute best. They’re in a deep hole because they’re currently in fifth place and only four teams can make the conference tournament.”

The MAC Championships start on April 24 in DeKalb.
