Men’s Tennis Opens at Principia Invite
With five of its players returning from a year ago, the SIUE men’s tennis team will open play this weekend at the Principia Invitational in Elsah.
The round-robin tournament begins Friday and will conclude Saturday.
“This is a good warm-up to start the season,” Coach Bill Logan said. “This tournament gives us a chance to get things rolling.”
Newcomer Matt Warner (Arlington Hts.), a transfer from Midwestern State, will compete at No. 1 singles. Matt Kuban (Pekin) will play No. 2 singles. Warner and Kuban will team up to make the No. 1 doubles team.
At No. 3 singles, Logan will get a look at newcomer Justin Free (Danville). Andy Renner (Belleville) returns to the No. 4 slot, with Chris Rigdon (Glen Carbon) playing No. 5 and Doug Kummer (Fenton, Mo.) rounding out the lineup at No. 6 singles.
Rigdon and Daniel Lipe (Edwardsville) will play No. 2 doubles, with Free and Kummer competing at No. 3 doubles.
