COLCHESTER, Vt. – Southern New Hampshire University swept Saint Michael's College 9-0 in a Northeast-10 men's tennis match Tuesday afternoon.  With the win, the Penmen improve to 7-5 overall and 7-1 in the NE-10, while the Purple Knights are 1-5 overall and in the league.

With its seventh conference victory, Southern New Hampshire established a school record for Northeast-10 Conference victories in a season.  The previous record was six, set during the 2008-09 season.  The Penmen also tied the school record for overall victories during the "modern era" of men's tennis when the sport was reinstated prior to the 2000-01 academic year.

The Penmen swept all six singles matches and all three doubles matches.  In singles, Alex Mukdaprakorn (Hartford, Conn.) and Jared Wright (Norwell, Mass.) were straight-set winners at No. 3 and No. 4, respectively.

Southern New Hampshire returns to action Sunday when it travels to Bentley University for a battle of regionally-ranked teams starting at 2:00 pm.

So. New Hampshire 9, Saint Michael's 0
