The Butler Men's Tennis team picked up their first win of the season on Sunday morning, thanks to some late heroics from Nicholas Shirley.

Shirley delivered the winning point with a three-set victory on court five. After winning the first set 6-4 and dropping the second set 1-6, he came back to win the final set in a thrilling tiebreaker, 7-6 (2). 

The other three points for Butler came courtesy of singles victories from Nicolas Arts, Rahulniket Konakanchi, and Siddhartha Lama, each winning in straight sets. 

The Bulldogs move to 1-4 on the season. They'll make the short trip to Marian University for their next match on Friday, February 6th.
