Men's tennis surprisingly strong

By Hondo Sen | October 28, 1997

Gabe Sauerhoff '99 and Rob Simik '99 -- arguably the two best players on the men's tennis team -- knew they would need to take their respective games up a notch this past weekend as they hit the road and visited the Penn Invitational in Philadelphia. And step it up they did. Simik opened up his run with a solid straight sets win over Andrers Bjorkholm of Virginia Commonwealth University by scores of 6-4, 6-2. However, the big serving junior saved his best for his next match -- as he found himself pitted against #2 seed Diago Ayala of Miami University. In a surprising display of the Big Green's strength, Simik left the Floridian stunned, winning in straight sets, 6-2, 6-1. Simik finally met defeat in the main draw when he fell to Martin Bentssom of Northwestern University. "I wasn't expecting much out of this weekend," Simik said, "but when I took the court, everything fell into place.
