Harding Men's Tennis Wins Twice in Memphis

MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Harding won five of six singles matches against both Christian Brothers and Rhodes Thursday, and the Bisons won twice to improve to 10-5 overall and extend its winning streak to seven matches.

The big news of the day for the Bisons came from freshman Morgan Salvan, who won both of his singles matches and improved to 20-4. He became only the second Harding player in the school's NCAA era to win 20 singles matches in a season. Darren Wade won 21 matches in 1997-98 and holds the school record.

Harding's next action is Wednesday, Mar. 28 in Shawnee, Oklahoma. The Bisons take on Oklahoma Baptist in the first of three Great American Conference matches.
