The Penn State Behrend men's tennis team rebounded off their loss yesterday to cruise past the D'Youville Spartans in an AMCC contest.  The blue and white were dominant throughout the entire match and had no trouble with the Spartans.

Several Behrend Lions got into the action and were successful against D'Youville.  Elliot Blackstone (Wexford/Pine Richland) continued to dominate his opponents by taking care of the number one singles spot by scores of 6-0 and 6-0.  Chris Galvin (Erie/McDowell) picked up right where he left off yesterday with a convincing 6-0, 6-0 shutout in number two singles.  Also taking singles victories were Jon Hamm (Pittsburgh/Seton La-Salle), Matthew Kiser (Grove City/Grove City), Juan Santiago (Erie/Central) and Travis Parke (Erie/Seneca).  Hamm and Parke also teamed up to win their doubles match by a score of 8-0.

With the win, the blue and white improve their record to 7-5 overall and 2-1 in the conference.  Next up for Coach Barger's squad will be another home AMCC match against the Pitt-Greensburg Bobcats scheduled to take place on Tuesday, March 23.
