Baylor tennis team takes title

Baylor University's men's tennis team clinched the school's first-ever NCAA title with a 4-0 victory over UCLA at the NCAA Championships in Tulsa, Okla. The second-ranked Bears, making Baylor's first title appearance since the 1948 basketball team lost to Kentucky in the NCAA final, won the match in 1 hour, 58 minutes, surrendering just one point and posting five shutouts in six NCAA tournament matches. Baylor completed the 2003-04 season with a school-record 32-2 mark and the nation's longest winning streak at 24 matches. Pictured are (front row, left to right) Ivor Lovrak, Matias Marin and Reiner Neurohr; (back row) Head Coach Matt Knoll, Benedikt Dorsch, Benjamin Becker, Jon Reckeway, Jason Gould, Matija Zgaga, Joel Morgan, Adrian Szatmary, Barry McLaren, and Assistant Coach Rob Cheyne.
