Minneapolis, Minn. – The University of New Mexico men’s tennis team had a great performance to open day one of the Gopher Fall Invitational at the Baseline Tennis Center in Minneapolis. The Lobos came out hot as they were able to win eight of the 10 singles matches as well as all five doubles.
The 2006 Gopher Fall Invitational runs Sept. 29-Oct. 1, and features Minnesota, Drake, Iowa, New Mexico, Wisconsin and Wisconsin-Green Bay competing in a mock dual format. Play begins at 8:30 a.m., each day of the event.
UNM took three of four against Drake with Kamil Pajkowski, Johnny Parkes, and Miles Bugby all netting wins. The Lobos would then face off against Wisconsin Green Bay and Coach Loren Dils put in a line-up that may very well represent what the team will look like in the spring. New Mexico proceeded to take five of six including a win for No. 90 Max Jones in his first collegiate action of the fall.
The Lobos were dominant in doubles action as they swept Minnesota and Drake. New Mexico’s Max Jones and Kamil Pajkowski who are currently ranked No. 50 had little trouble in their first match of the year dispatching Osorio and Wilkins of Minnesota 8-5.
UNM will take to the courts again today before Jones, Pajkowski, and Parkes will travel to Tulsa, Okla. for the Polo Ralph Lauren All-American on Sunday. The rest of the team will stay behind to compete in the final day of this Invitational.
