TOLEDO, OH - The Toledo men's tennis split their pair of home matches this weekend. The Rockets first defeated Duquesne, 6-1, before falling to Butler, 5-2.

"We had a very compelling match tonight. This will help us in a lot of ways, especially with having our freshmen's feet in the fire in a real pressure-cooker situation. Its only going to help us get better," head coach Al Wermer said.
