BETHLEHEM, PA – Men's tennis traveled to Lehigh earlier today to take on the Mountain Hawks in a late Wednesday matchup. The Knights take home only their second win of the season tonight, coming off a two-match losing streak against Le Moyne and NJIT. In a tough start to the night, FDU lost all double matches against the strong Lehigh opponents. But the story was all singles as the burgundy and blue won four of six matchups, including a thrilling 6-2, 1-6, 6³-7⁷ win for freshman Tauras Mickus that secured the victory for the Knights.
