Yellowjacket Tennis Teams Sweep Weekend Series at Mary (Sept. 27, 2004)

BISMARCK, ND – The Montana State-Billings tennis teams kicked off the fall season with an unbeaten weekend at University of Mary on Saturday and Sunday.  The Yellowjacket men posted a pair of 9-0 shutouts, while the women had a 5-3 win and a 3-3 tie.  The women did not play complete matches because the Yellowjackets only traveled four players for the weekend.  Both MSU Billings teams travel to Missoula on October 9 and 10 for the University of Montana Invitational.
