Bulls Fall in Quarterfinals of MAC Championships
The University at Buffalo men’s tennis team was eliminated Thursday afternoon in the quarterfinal round of the Mid-American Conference Championships, 4-0, by Northern Illinois ending the season for the Bulls and preventing UB from reaching the semifinal round for the third straight season. UB, which entered the tournament as the fourth seed, ends the 2005-06 campaign with a record of 11-9.
Singh Panthlia and Kennedy Combine for Doubles Win
 Matt Kennedy | The Bulls picked up a doubles win, but were unable to claim the opening point in their quarterfinal match against Northern Illinois. UB’s number two team of Nikesh Singh Panthlia (George Town, Malaysia/BMK Penang Free School) and Matt Kennedy (Mississauga, Ontario/Erindale) knocked off NIU’s David Katz and Jimmy Chu, 8-4. UB’s top team of Yules Hadisubroto (Jakarta, Indonesia/SMUN 21) and Octavian Stane (Toronto, Ontario/Leaside) were defeated by Brian Livingston and Alex Friesen, 8-3, setting up the number three match as the decider. In the number three match, the Bulls’ combination of Mike Rockman (Toronto, Ontario/Thornlea) and Albert Alant (Pretoria, South Africa/Niskayuna (NY)) fell by an 8-5 count to Adam Ford and Diego Zegarra-Ballon, giving the Huskies the opening point.
End of an Era for Crispell
 Russ Crispell | The MAC Tournament loss concludes Russ Crispell’s tenure as head coach. He announced earlier in the year that he would become coordinator of UB’s Outdoor Pursuits program. Crispell finishes 123-114 in 13 years with the men’s program, second to Bill Sanford’s 226 wins from 1949-73.
