LOS ANGELES -- The Loyola Marymount University men's tennis team took the double's point against No. 18 UCLA Saturday afternoon, but didn't take the win, falling to the Bruins 4-1.
"We left it all out there this weekend and was a swing or two away from that match being ours today versus the Bruins," said head coach
Tom Lloyd. "Fantastic doubles play and the resilience the boys are showing is very encouraging."
