Utah State men's tennis (2-1) lost, 4-3, to Utah (3-0) in Salt Lake City on Sunday.
"Tough match for us today," head coach James Wilson said. "We competed hard in doubles and were literally one point away from winning the point. Overall in singles, we didn't have everyone and that's disappointing. We have to push forward and continue to improve."
Senior Andrew Nakajima and freshman Valdemar Holm lost, 6-4, in doubles at the No. 2 spot against freshmen Randy Cory and Russell Benkaim. Senior Jaime Barajas and freshman Jose Carvajal then took a 7-5 victory over juniors Joe Woolley and Dan Little at the No.
