Air Force men's tennis dropped a 4-0 dual to New Mexico to be eliminated from the 2019 Mountain West Men's Tennis Championships Thursday morning at Spalding G. Wathen Tennis Center in Fresno, Calif. The Falcons conclude the 2019 season with a 12-13 record.
After nearly upsetting the top-seeded Lobos in a 4-3 setback just five days ago, the eight-seeded Falcons struggled to get things going Thursday.
Air Force dropped the doubles point after losses at No. 1 and No. 2 doubles. Paul Hendrix and Jamie Bautista fell at No. 2 to Dominic West/Facundo Bermejo 6-1 and Tadgh Collins and Patrick Sklenka fell at No. 1 to Ricky Hernandez Tong/Stepan Holis 7-5.
New Mexico swept the singles action, winning at No. 3, 2 and 5 singles. Hendrix fell at No. 3 to Holis 6-1, 6-4. Luke Sanderson fell at No. 2 to West 6-2, 6-2. Mack Galvin then lost at No. 5 to Bermejo 6-2, 6-4.
Air Force graduates three seniors off the 2019 team. Collins, Isaac Perez and Sanderson comprise the class of 2019.
