If you missed Concordia University Nebraska athletics this weekend, here is what happened.
The Concordia women’s tennis team played a non-conference dual against the Mount Marty University Lancers on Feb. 13 sweeping them 7-0. The team is now 2-1 on the season and faces Ottawa University next on Feb. 20.
The women swept the doubles point handedly going 6-2 in the No. 1, 6-3 in the No. 2 and 6-3 in the No. 3. All the singles matches were won in two sets with the most competitive being the No. 3 match between junior Alana Lopez Pagan and Lancer Maria Luisa going 6-4, 6-4.
The Concordia men’s tennis team also faced the Lancers and won 5-2 to put them at a 2-2 record. They also face Ottawa University on Feb. 20.
The men lost the doubles point 2-1 with a win in the No. 1 match with juniors Hugo Fuentes and Nick Velders. The men had tough singles matches with almost everyone having a tiebreaker of some sort. However, their grit allowed the Bulldogs to claw their way to a win.
