NEW YORK, NY – The University at Buffalo men’s tennis team won its first match of the spring, pulling out a 4-3 victory over Manhattan, Friday evening at the Columbia Tennis Center. With the victory UB is now 2-1 in dual meets on the season.

UB had to squeeze by to claim the doubles point as it came down to the match at number two doubles for the point. Nikesh Singh Panthlia (George Town, Malaysia/BMK Penang Free School) and Kirill Kolomytes (Moscow, Russia/Moscow High School 155) won 9-7 to take a 1-0 advantage into singles play. Singh Panthlia and Kolomytes have now teamed up to win their first two doubles matches of the spring.

Panthlia and Mike Rockman (Toronto, Ontario/Thornlea) each picked up a victory in singles play, while Kolomytes, Eric Rothstein (Phoenixville, PA/Great Valley) and Octavian Stane (Toronto, Ontario/Leaside) each fell in their matches. That left a 3-3 contest between Buffalo and Manhattan with the number five singles still being played. Yules Hadisubroto (Jakarta, Indonesia/SMUN 21) won the first set 6-3 against Manhattan’s Filip Szymik, before falling in the second on a super-tiebreaker, 8-6. Hadisubroto then found himself down 3-0 early in the third set, but fought back to win that final set, 7-5, and give UB the victory over the Jaspers.

The Bulls return to the court on Feb. 4 as they host their first matches of 2007. UB will welcome both Colgate and Duquesne to the Village Glen Tennis Center with festivities beginning at 1:00 pm.
