Norman, Okla. — Sophomore Victor Moreno Lozano notched his third season win at the No. 1 spot with a 6-1, 6-1 upset of Jake Van Emburgh, but the Nebraska men’s tennis (2-10, 0-1 Big Ten) fell short to the No. 32 Oklahoma Sooners (10-4, 0-0 Big 12), 6-1, on Sunday morning at the Headington Family Tennis Center.

In doubles play, Jochen Bertsch and Van Emburgh teamed up for a 6-1 win over sophomore Patrick Cacciatore and freshman Andre Saleh at the No. 1 position, before Mark Mandlik/Matt Rodriguez defeated Albert Sprlak-Puk/Shunya Maruyama, 7-5 at No. 3 to clinch doubles for the Sooners.
