After falling to the nationally ranked Drake University Bulldogs in their conference opener Saturday, the Jays got back to their winning ways with a 7-0 victory over the Hastings College Broncos Tuesday night.

The Jays improved to 7-5 overall with the win. The Jays also improved to 5-1 at home this season.

Tuesday was the Jays first clean sweep of the season.

Senior Sean Mathison and freshman Brandon Lee started the night with an 8-3 victory at No. 2 doubles. Freshman Nick Thompson and senior Ryan Norman teamed up for an 8-5 triumph in No. 1 doubles, and freshmen August Nysted and Sam Wells paired up for an 8-4 win at No. 3 doubles.

Freshman Jack Fay made his Bluejay debut with an unblemished victory, 6-0, 6-0 in the No. 6 singles position. Fellow freshman Anthony Rauschenbach won in straight sets 6-1, 6-2 in the No. 5 singles spot. Freshman Quinn Dippel defeated Leland Dexter 6-1, 6-0, giving the Jays the match victory. Norman defeated Seton Bachle 6-2, 6-0 at No. 2 singles, while Mathison defeated McKay Inman 6-4, 6-2 at No.1 singles.

After the Jays had sealed the victory, Lee completed the sweep with a three-set win in the No. 4 singles match. After winning his first set 6-4, Lee dropped his second set 4-6, but managed to come out on top in his third set 10-3.

The Bluejays travel to Wichita Friday to match-up against the Wichita State Shockers. Friday’s conference match will be the Jays second of the season.

“We’re just trying to compete well in conference play,” Rauschenbach said. “We’re trying to get a good doubles lineup that we feel confident in and we’re still just tweaking our lineup so we can match up the best against the teams in our conference.”

The Jays have four conference and one nonconference match, before the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament begins on April 26.
