ASHEVILLE, N.C. – For just the second time all season, UNC Asheville Men's Tennis fell to its opponent, as ETSU topped the Bulldogs 6-1 at the Asheville Racquet Club Saturday afternoon.

In singles competition the Bucs would take flights No. 1 through three in straight sets to go in front 4-0, adding victories at flights No. 4 and 5. Quinn Fender fought valiantly for a win at the No. 6 flight, topping Juan Jose Vargas 7-6, 6-4 (7-2).
