Men’s Tennis Falls to Loyola Despite Wins in Top Singles Flights

William Barry and John Yurconic Each Earned Straight-Sets Wins

Easton, Pa. -- Lafayette College men's tennis (1-6, 1-2 PL) won its matches in the two highest flights of singles, but couldn't keep up with Loyola (2-6, 1-2 PL) on Saturday afternoon, falling to the Greyhounds, 5-2.

William Barry won in both singles and doubles for the second consecutive Patriot League match. He made quick work of fellow junior Benny Glezer, 6-1, 6-0, at first-flight singles after teaming up with freshman Davis Esslinger for a Leopards win at second-flight doubles, 7-5.

Senior John Yurconic also put on a convincing performance at second-flight singles, defeating Edik Pribitkin 6-1, 6-2 to grab his first singles victory of the season.

The Leopards continue their Patriot League slate next Friday against Bucknell.
