ANGOLA, Ind. – The Trine University men's team picked up another home victory despite cold and blustery weather making play difficult. The Thunder won 7-0 over The University of Olivet.

All three doubles matches went to the home team to earn the first dual point of the day. Both the No. 1 pair of Drew Hackney and Andrew Spirrison and the No. 3 pair of Nicholas Jen and Caleb Morris won with the score of 6-2. The win caused some havoc in the No. 2 match, but Elijah Schilthuis and Emmett Wirth came up with a 6-4 win.

Emmett figured out the conditions during singles sweeping the No. 5 singles match, 6-0, 6-0. Both Schilthuis at No. 3 and Jen at No. 6 needed just one more point to win with scores of 6-0, 6-1. Spirrison won comfortably at No. 2 with scores of 6-2, 6-1 and Morris took the No. 4 match 6-2, 6-2.

Hackney made quick work of the first set but then found himself only up on at 3-2 in the second. He pulled away from there to win 6-1, 6-3.
