STOCKTON, Calif. – The San Francisco men's tennis team began play in its last tournament of the fall season, at the Pacific Tiger Invitational.
Half of the four men participating in the tournament won opening round singles matches, with
Thomas Takemoto and
Timothy Tan both knocking off opponents from Holy Names in their respective brackets.
James Tallman, seeded No. 2 in the "A" bracket, fell in the first round to Pacific's Denis Stolyarov and will look to rebound in the consolations Saturday afternoon.
On the doubles side of the bracket, Tallman alongside partner Tan took care of opponents Phil Holbrook and Matt Roberts of Sonoma State, 8-4, before a duo from UC Davis handed them a loss in the round of 16.
Both singles and doubles action continues Saturday from Pacific.
