MISSOULA, Mont. - The No. 57 Idaho men's tennis team improved to 11-0 on the season with a pair of victories on Saturday over Montana and Montana State.
The Vandals picked up a 7-0 win over Montana in the early match before winning 5-0 over MSU in the afternoon.
"It was two good matches," Idaho coach Jeff Beaman said. "The guys showed up well against a tough Montana team at home, and I was very impressed with how they followed that up with another win against a very tough opponent, taking care of business despite a very long day and a lot of hours on court."
Idaho will get its first shot against a ranked opponent next week when it visits No. 45 Oregon on March 8.
