INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.  – The Northern Kentucky Men's Tennis team was looking for a win to improve their conference standing in the Horizon League, as they entered Saturday afternoon's matchup on a three-match losing streak, most recently taking a loss to these very same Jaguars just a week prior. 

Northern Kentucky was able to flip the script on IU Indy, winning four singles points on their way to a 4-3 victory. Jacob Rouleau-Mailly, Emilio Bravo, Joao Pimenta & Hector Salvador Civera all picked up singles wins as the Norse just edged the Jaguars in a pivotal matchup.
