Millersville starts PSAC action with sweep of Kutztown

KUTZTOWN, Pa. - Millersville men's tennis started PSAC action exactly as planned. The Marauders traveled to Kutztown and swept the Golden Bears 7-0 Thursday. 

Millersville is now 1-2, picking up its first win after a pair of non-conference losses. Kutztown dropped to 0-3 (0-3 PSAC) with the loss. 

MATCH HIGHLIGHTS

REACTION FROM COACH MATT HELSEL
On bouncing back for the team's first win: "The men were very sharp. Our opponents aren't as bad as the scores might indicate. I was very impressed with the focused, business-like performance today. That's the type of showing I expect to see from them every time out the door."

NOTES
• After losing 26 consecutive matches to Kutztown between 2000-2007, Millersville has won each of the last two over Kutztown. 

UP NEXT
