The men’s tennis team will take on La Salle on Thursday afternoon at 3:30 p.m. in Olney, Pa.

The Owls (4-9, 2-3 Atlantic 10 Conference) will look to extend their two-match winning streak. The Explorers (7-5, 0-2 A-10) are on a three-match losing streak.

Since senior Kacper Rams will not be playing, the top flight singles spot will be up for grabs. Sophomores Kristian Marquart and Hernan Vasconez have played there in the last two matches, each losing in straight sets.

Rams’ injury has opened up playing time for freshman Maros Januvka. He has played top-flight doubles in each of the past two matches with Vasconez. Despite losing both matches, coach Steve Mauro has said Januvka is impressing in practice, and deserves the opportunity.

Marquart and his doubles partner, freshman Sam Rundle, have been doing well lately. In the last nine matches, the duo is 5-2 with two incomplete matches. They defeated Morgan State’s team of freshman Evan Ward and junior Jannick Tash 8-5.
