Las Vegas, Nev.-The NC State men's tennis team fell to Ball State Wednesday evening 4-0 at the Fertitta Tennis Complex in Las Vegas, Nevada. The match was called after Ball State captured the four necessary points to clinch the match due to inclement weather. The afternoon contest between the Wolfpack and Southern Mississippi was also postponed until Thursday morning.
NC State's only victory came in the #3 doubles contest when Bryce McGrory and RJ Murray defeated Matt Laramore and Klint Knoble 9-8 (8-3).
The Wolfpack drops to 4-9 with the victory, while Ball State improves to 4-10.
