TUCSON, Ariz. - No. 11 Men's Tennis (17-4 overall, 2-2 Big 12) swept Oklahoma State 4-0 in their conference home opener Friday afternoon at LaNelle Robson Tennis Center. 

Arizona gained an early lead Friday after winning the doubles point with matches on courts one and three. Finishing first was court one where No. 33 Jay Friend and Eric Padgham took down OSU's Alessio Basile and Nicolas Kobelt 6-2. The deciding point came down to court three, where Filip Gustafsson and Casper Christensen battled it out in a tie-breaker to a 7-6(5) win over Isaac Becroft and Finn Hopfe. 

In singles play, first to finish was sophomore Alexander Rozin winning in straight sets, 6-2, 6-4, over Kobelt. Finishing shortly after was freshman and 89-ranked Zoran Ludoski playing in the court two position, winning 6-3, 6-1 over Derek Pham. Clinching Friday's match was junior captain and No. 8 Friend on court one, with a gritty 6-3, 7-5 win over Bercroft.
