DALLAS (SMU)-No. 43 SMU men's tennis (0-2) lost their second match of the season to a dominant DePaul (5-0) team by a score of 5-2 on Sunday, January 25 at Turpin Tennis Stadium. Despite the loss, junior Robin Fahgen (2-0) continued his winning ways in singles action.

Fahgen narrowly defeated DePaul's number one, Austin Doerner in straight sets (7-6, 6-5), while No. 116 sophomore Artem Baradach earned the win over Alasdair Graetz (6-4, 6-2) to record the only wins for the Mustangs.

The Mustangs will return to action in the National Indoors tournament on Friday, and will continue play into Saturday at UCLA in Los Angeles, California.
