No. 25 Baylor crushed the Kansas men's tennis team during its senior day festivities yesterday at Alvamar Racquet Club by beating the Javahawks 5-2.
The loss eliminated 39th-ranked Kansas (8-11 overall), 4-3 Big 12 Conference) from the Big 12 regular season title chase and guaranteed a record below.500 for the first time since 1989.
The Jayhawks' only victories came at No. 2 singles, where senior Xavier Avila defeated David Hodge (6-3, 3-6, 6-3), and No. 6 singles, where freshman Ed Dus beat Jaro Turek in straight sets (6-2, 6-2).
Avila and seniors Enrique Abaroa, Trent Tucker and Scott Marshall were honored between matches.
No. 62-ranked Abaroa returned to singles action. He had missed several weeks because of a sprained back. His return was less than glorious — he was upset (6-3, 6-4) at No. 1 singles by No. 81 Johann Jooste.
"I'm disappointed we didn't win because our seniors didn't get to go out as they should; winners," men's tennis coach Mark Riley said. "They've done great things for our program."
"We've been up and down all season. Today was the perfect example of that." Riley said. "Fortunately, we're getting healthy again. If we play to our abilities, we have a lot to look forward to."
Saturday, the men's and women's teams netted solid wins against Texas Tech at the Robinson tennis courts.
Senior day was more successful for the No. 13-ranked women's team. Seniors Christie Sim and Maria Abatjoglou went out in winning fashion as the Jayhawks (17-2 overall, 9-0 Big 12) cruised to an 8-1 victory.
Sim and sophomore Brooke Chiller won 8-5 at No. 1 doubles, and Abatjoglou and junior Kris Sell won 9-8 at No. 3 doubles.
Senior Kylie Hunt sat out her fourth-straight match because of an inflamed lung.
The Jayhawks took an early lead by winning four-of-six singles matches. The Red Raiders' only win was at No. 2 singles, where Amanda Earhart upset

No. 79 Sell, (2-6, 7-5, 7-6 (5).)
The team, which also beat No. 38 Baylor 6-3 on Friday, preserved its perfect Big 12 record and won its 11th consecutive match.
"We played well all the way up to the end to win it," women's tennis coach Roland Thornqvist said. "I think everybody did a good job of playing hard."
Tucker and Dus won their matches in straight sets as the men's team beat the No. 51-ranked Red Raiders 5-2.
Tucker defeated Wojteck Stasiak (6-1, 6-2) at No. 4 singles, and Dus defeated Adam Baranowski (Dus 6-2, 7-5).
The men's team will play at Texas Thursday. The women's team will play Saturday when it travels to Texas A&M.

APPLICATION FOR TIAA AND CREF SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT ANNUITY CONTRACTS
For fast relief from the nagging哎杏 of taxes, we recommend TIAA-CREF SRAs. SRAs are tax-deferred annuities that can help you build additional assets — money that can make the difference between living and living well in retirement.
Contributions to SRAs are conveniently deducted from your salary on a pretax basis. The result? More money invested. Fewer taxes now. And since investment earnings are tax deferred until you receive them as income, the money you don't send to Washington can work even harder for you.
Today T1A4-GREF can help you meet even more of your financial objectives, with IRAₛ, mutual funds, and more. We'll help you select the solutions that suit your needs. Visit your benefits office or call us at 1800 82-2776 to learn more.
What else do SRAs offer? A full range of investment choices, a helpful loan feature, and the financial expertise of TIA-A-CREF, the world's largest retirement system. $^{8}$
