ABILENE, Texas - The HSU men's tennis team claimed the ASC West Division Title this past weekend with wins over Schreiner and Texas Lutheran.

The Cowboys started the weekend off with a road trip to San Antonio, where they took on the Trinity Tigers. HSU battled with Trinity before falling 7-0.

The men then hit the courts Saturday morning when they hosted Schreiner University. The Cowboys got ahead early on winning all three doubles matches. The No.1 duo of Mitch Aston and Mark Plowman defeated Anguiano and Webb 8-3, while No.2 duo of Brad Grace and David Wu won 8-1. Justin Narvid and Bryce Hicks teamed together at the No.3 spot defeating Jaster and Harris 9-8. The Cowboys went on to defeat Schreiner 6-1.

The Cowboys then faced Texas Lutheran later Saturday afternoon. Texas Lutheran only had three players, which gave HSU the automatic win. The Cowboys defeated TLU 7-0.

The HSU men will return to action April 25-26th when they will attempt to defend the American Southwest Conference Title. The tournament will be held at HSU and times will be announced at a later date.
