Red Raiders Defeat New Mexico for Ninth Straight Win
March 27, 2021 | Men's Tennis
ALBUQUERQUE, New Mexico – The No. 22 Texas Tech men's tennis team weathered unexpected adversity on their way to a 4-2 defeat of the New Mexico Lobos.
New Mexico took the first doubles match with Alex Maggs and Stepan Holis defeating Francisco Vittar and Isaac Arevalo 6-2. Dimitrios Azoidis and Ilgiz Valiev evened up the affair by knocking off Jake Trondson and Raul Dobai 7-5. The doubles point came down to court one, with the home tandem of Sergio Molina and Dominic West besting the thirty-first ranked team of Parker Wynn and Franco Ribero 7-6 (7-5).
Singles play saw more of the same back and forth between the two teams. Azoidis struck first to even the scorecard by knocking off Serio Molina 6-1, 6-4. The Lobos regained the lead when Raul Dobai did what no other opponent could do since February 6, and beat Valiev 6-3, 6-3. However, that would be the last time the Red Raiders would see defeat. Wynn scored a much needed point, taking down Dominic West 6-3, 6-0 on court one. Vittar's singles point from court five gave Tech the lead for good and allowed Arevalo's three set defeat over Rafael Abdulsalam to be the match clincher for the Red Raiders.
Up next: Texas Tech begins a five match, Big 12 Conference slate by traveling to Norman to take on the Sooners on Thursday, April 1.
