About the Bison
• The Bison are headed to Richmond, Va. for the fifth tournament the team has participated in this fall.
• The Bison will send Marwan Abaza, Ryan Jurist, Guillermo Torres, and Per Astrom to represent the team.
• Torres has competed in three of the Bison's fall tournaments and has picked up at least one singles win in each. Jurist has also participated in three tournaments, winning singles matches at both the Bucknell Invitational and against Wagner at the Temple Invite.
• Astrom earned a singles win and a pair of doubles victories playing alongside Torres at the Mount Invitational, and was one of two Bison to compete at Binghamton two weeks ago.
• Abaza will see his first action of the season in Richmond this weekend. The junior went 9-8 in singles in the spring and ended the season on a five-match winning streak.
This weekend marks the final event of the fall season for Bucknell.
