Vitiuc and Jurist Post Two Wins Apiece at the Event

PRINCETON, N.J. – Andrei Vitiuc and Ryan Jurist each went 2-2 in singles to pace the Bucknell men's tennis team at the Farnsworth Invitational, hosted by Princeton on Friday-Sunday.

Vitiuc, a senior, was making his season debut and posted wins over NJIT's George Svensson (6-4, 7-6) and Middlebury's Andre Xiao (6-4, 6-4). He had losses to players from Delaware and Marist.

Jurist, a freshman, upped his record to 4-3 in his first collegiate season. His wins came over NJIT's Tomi Antoljak (7-5, 6-2) and Marist's Jack Sequerth (7-5, 7-6). Antoljak is in his second season with the Highlanders after transferring from Nebraska. Jurist's losses came to players from Marist and Princeton.

Adding a singles win on the weekend was freshman Alex Pedrazzini. He picked up his first college victory by a 4-6, 6-0, 10-3 score over Svensson.
Jurist and Pedrazzini also teamed up for a doubles win. They beat Marist's Kian Yazdi and Max Darrington, 6-2.

"The guys showed they are fit and willing to make in-match adjustments," Bucknell head coach Bruce Myers said. "We're very much looking forward to this weekend to play in mock dual format."

The Bison will play at Temple's City 6 Invitational on Oct. 12-14.
