CHARLESTON, W.Va. – The UC men's tennis suffered their third straight loss to start the 2016 season, falling 6-3 to University of Findlay at the Charleston Tennis Club on Sunday afternoon.  The Golden Eagles dug themselves a 0-3 hole after doubles and couldn't pick up enough singles courts to earn their first win of the season.
 
Alec Foote, playing at #1 singles, picked up his second consecutive singles win as part of Charleston's three wins in singles.  Jake Lorenz and Varun Shah grabbed straight set victories at the #5 & #6 spots to even the singles scores at three wins apiece.
 
The Golden Eagles open up Mountain East Conference play next Saturday against Shepherd University before heading on their annual Spring Break trip to Hilton Head, S.C.
