Some things are inevitable: Death, taxes and Ole Miss beating Mississippi State. On Sunday, the Rebels Men’s Tennis team went down to Starkville and upset the Bulldogs in a dominant fashion.
The Rebels took five of the seven games played, despite being the lower-ranked team. The heavyweight match of the afternoon was No. 36 Nikola Slavic taking on No. 39 Florian Broska of Mississippi State. Slavic came out on top in a match that lasted just three games.
The Rebels nearly swept all six singles matches, except for Gregor Ramskogler defeating Lukas Engelhardt in two games. The other Mississippi State victory came at the hands of Davide Tortora, who dominated Jakob Cadonau in two sets (and a total score of 12-3).
