MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- In a three-match conference road swing in Memphis, the Millsaps men's tennis team topped Centre College 9-0 before dropping back-to-back decisions to Birmingham-Southern and host Rhodes to finish 1-2 on the two-day trip.

\#Russell Anderson\# and \#Alex Cummings\# each went 2-1 on the trip in singles play at No's 3 and 4, whereas each player on the trip earned at least one singles win.

In the opening match of the day Saturday against Centre, Millsaps swept the doubles point in three, close matches before sweeping all six matches in singles play for the 9-0 victory -- its second straight.

In the finale on Saturday against 13th-ranked BSC, the Majors put forth a good effort from start to finish but fell 7-2 after getting swept in doubles play.  Both Anderson and Cummings persevered in two quality, singles wins, with Anderson rallying for a 2-6, 6-4 (10-1) victory over J.C. Freeman.

With weather threatening on Sunday against 11th-ranked Rhodes, both teams agreed to play the match until someone clinched victory.  The Lynx earned a shortened, 5-0 victory with No's 1-4 singles still up for grabs.

Rhodes took an early 3-0 lead with a sweep in doubles action, despite the duo of Cummings/\#Campbell Hughes\# rallying back from a 5-0 deficit at No. 1 before falling 8-5.  The Lynx easily won 8-1 and 8-0 the ensuing two matches in doubles.

Millsaps will return to the courts Friday, April 10 in Sherman, Texas, taking on Austin College (9 a.m.) and Southeastern Oklahoma State University (1 p.m.).
