Men’s Tennis Gets First MIAA Tournament Win But Can’t Get Past Second Round

Lindenwood's tennis teams had never won a dual in the MIAA Tournament, but that changed when Lindenwood beat Emporia State in the first round. Four days after losing 5-4 to Emporia State Lindenwood came back and won in the first round of the MIAA Tournament. Lindenwood would lose to Northwest Missouri State in the second round 5-0.

Against Emporia State, they proved that their doubles teams are very strong, sweeping Lindenwood, 3-0. Lindenwood lost the first match, but would turn it around, winning the next five singles matches to go on to win. Starting off for Lindenwood was Nicholas Bruenger, pulling off a clutch 6-4 victory in the third set. Johannes Rabenhorst won in straight sets. Naoufal El Idrissi continued the streak, followed by Yoshikazu Ysa winning 6-3, 6-1. Lindenwood's No. 1 Filip Bogic took care of business in the No. 1 matchup, winning 6-2, 6-1.

Lindenwood didn't close the season out the way it had hoped, losing to Norwest Missouri  5-0, before leaving the final four matches unfinished. Last time Lindenwood's men's team played Northwest Missouri, they lost 6-3.

The men's total record is 6-14 and 1-4 in conference play. The Lions first MIAA Tournament win is a sign of great things to come as Lindenwood will now close out its tennis season and get ready for the upcoming season. Seniors Johannes Rabenhorst and Yoshikazu Ysa will be wrapping up stellar careers as Lions and everyone at Lindenwood is grateful to have had these two young men represent the university.
