By Tim Glon

OBERLIN — The Ohio Northern men's tennis team opened its 2018-19 season with an oustanding effort at the Oberlin Invitational Saturday and Sunday at the Hunsinger Courts.

The Polar Bears posted a 27-4 record, going 20-3 in singles and 7-1 in doubles play.

There was no team scoring. The tournament featured random draws in both singles and doubles play based on each player's UTR ratings.

Six ONU players posted perfect 5-0 records, going 3-0 in singles and 2-0 in doubles.

Junior Connor Christian (Gallipolis/Gallia Academy), sophomores Vinh Thai (Hilliard/Davidson) and Joji Imatomi (Yokohama, Japan/Kamakura Gakuen) and freshmen Noah Elliott (Hilliard/Davidson), Nate Meadors (Dublin/Jerome) and Andrew Cochran (Wooster) all went undefeated on the weekend.

Complete results are expected to be available on Monday.

The Polar Bears will return to action on Saturday with a dual match at Findlay.
