Kansas tennis loses to Fresno
By Robert Moczydlowsky

Jayhawks' strong start doesn't lead to victory for men's team
A familiar feeling hit the men's tennis team Saturday night after their match against Fresno State.
It was the same feeling they had a year ago after they lost an agonizing match at the Bulldogs' home court. This year the match was in Lawrence, and this year it was supposed to be different.
"We had our chances," Kansas junior Mike Isroff said. "Our doubles play was great, and that gave us a good opportunity to win. But we didn't capitalize in the singles matches, and that eventually cost us the match."
The match started with doubles play, and an anxious crowd saw Kansas seize an early lead.
At the No.1 position, Kansas freshman Enrique Abaroa and junior J.P. Vissepo battled the formidable Fresno State tandem of Frederik Bergh and Ivan Keskinow. Abaroa and Vissepo dug their way out of an early 4-2 deficit and went on to win 9-8. Kansas then reid the doubles competition with wins by juniors Reid Slattery and Mike Isroff at No.2 and senior Manny Ortiz and junior Victor Fimbret at No.3.
When singles play started, the Jayhawks appeared to be in command. The first singles match pitted Abraona against one of Fresno State's powerful singles players, Keskinov, who is No. 15 in the nation.
The trash talk-filled match excited the crowd and the Jayhawk team as Abaroa overcame an early deficit and won the match with scores of 7-5 and 6-0.
Abaroa's win put Kansas ahead 2-0 and gave the crowd of about 500 spectators something to cheer about. The cheering subsided quickly, however, as the Jayhawks lost all five remaining singles matches, giving Fresno State a 6-2 victory.
"This is a hard one to take," he said. "This has become a great rivalry for us. We looked forward to this match all year, and losing is very disappointing."
"I really had to fight in the first set," Abarao said. "In the second set, I saw some things that he couldn't do, and I was able to force him into shots that he couldn't make. He is a very good player. This was a good win for me."
Kansas coach Michael Center had a hard time describing the loss.

positions, where the Jayhawks seemed to fall apart after early leads.
"I think that our four through six players are some of the best in the nation," Center said. "But for us to win, they need to win. We had some tremendous efforts, and then we had some very poor efforts. I really think that we're the better team. We put ourselves in position to win, but we didn't get it done."
The weekend wasn't a entirely lost, however. On Friday the Jayhaws used a workman-like effort to beat Iowa 5-0.
"I thought we played well against Iowa." Center said. "We gave a solid effort. One match does not a season make, and we know that. We need to give our best every time out."
'Hawks baseball drops two to UNLV
The No. 22 Kansas baseball team lost to Nevada-Las Vegas 13-7 yesterday at Earl E. Wilson Stadium in Las Vegas.
With the loss, the Jayhaws completed their first series of the year with a 1-2 record. UNLY improved to 6-3.
Kansas muscled its way to a 16-7 victory on Saturday. Junior pitcher Clay Baird threw five innings and earned the win. The Jayhawk offense came to life and pounded out 13 hits, including a two-run home run by Rude that capped off a four-run second innning.
ULVN won the opening game on Friday 13-7, hammering Kansas junior pitcher Jamie Splitoff with nine runs in five innings. The Jayhawks committed four errors in the game, which led to six unearned runs for the Rebels.
It was a tough weekend for the Kansas women's tennis team.
The No. 10 Jayhawks traveled to Williamsburg, Va., where they lost to No. 26 William and Mary 6-3 on Friday. Kansas remained in Williamsburg for Saturday's match against No. 15 Notre Dame. The Jayhawks lost that match 6-3.
On Sunday the team traveled to College Park, Md., where they beat Maryland 7-2. Kansas' overall season record is 3-3.
Kansas senior Nora Koves,ranked No. 2 in the Rolex Collegiate rankings,went undefeated in three matches this weekend.
