KERRVILLE, Texas -- Bouncing back from yesterday's semifinal defeat, Colorado College completed tournament play on a high note, earning a 5-2 victory over University of St. Thomas in the third place match of the 2022 Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Men's Tennis Championships Sunday morning at the H-E-B Municipal Tennis Center in Kerrville, Texas.

The Tigers picked up two of the three doubles points as Lucas Pastor and Alex Kley defeated the Celts' No. 2 line of Tyler Head and Jason Clark, and Nate Beerman and Jacob Adas picked up an 8-5 victory at the No. 3 line over Carson Steele and Jeremiah Hoover.
Staked to the 2-1 lead, Colorado College needed just three wins in singles play and picked those up rather quickly as both Kley and Adas earned straight set, 6-0, 6-0, wins at No. 5 and No. 6 singles, respectively, before Beerman sealed the match with a 6-2, 6-1 victory over UST's Steele.
Coloado College ends its season with a 13-10 record, its most wins in a season in 41 years, while St. Thomas completes the 2022 campaign with a 5-11 mark.
