DeKALB - The men’s tennis team’s season ended Friday with a loss to the University at Buffalo Bulls in a semifinal match of the Mid-American Conference Championships. The Bulls ended NIU’s season in this fashion for the second consecutive year.
Buffalo and NIU were paired together for a semifinal match as the No. 2 and No. 3 seeds, respectively. The match was all square at 3-3 before the Bulls sealed the final singles match to take the 4-3 victory.
The last time NIU won the doubles point was in its first conference matchup, a 6-1 win March 19 against Binghamton University, and the struggles continued Friday in doubles competition.
