HARROGATE, Tenn. -- The Bellarmine University men's tennis team finished the weekend with a narrow 4-5 loss at Lincoln Memorial on Sunday afternoon in Harrogate, Tenn. Logan Knott was once again a bright spot for the Knights winning both his singles and doubles matches, and wrapping up the weekend with a perfect 4-0 record.

"We just simply have to get outside and prepare ourselves for the extended rallies that occur out doors," said head coach John Mican.

Freshman Zachary Kuo also played some excellent singles today besting the Railsplitters number one player after partnering with Jose Legarreta to earn a solid win at number two doubles.

The Knights fall to 4-5 on the year.

In Bellarmine's next action, Indiana University Southeast will come to Eddie Weber Tennis Complex on Friday, March 14 at 3 p.m.
