WINTER PARK, Fla. – The Niagara tennis programs swept the Robert Morris Colonials in convincing fashion on Tuesday. The men’s team eased to a 6-1 win, while the women’s team topped the Colonials, 5-2.

“Both the guys’ and girls’ teams handled the windy conditions very well today,” head coach Anthony Nguyen said. “They went out with a very workmanlike attitude and took care of business. It’ encouraging to see the progress we are making on both sides.”

On the men’s side, Niagara (2-3) didn’t drop a single set in singles play.
