WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - The Cleveland State men's tennis team will play for its ninth Horizon League Tournament title tomorrow, after picking up a 4-3 victory over Tennessee State in Saturday's semifinal contest.

Kade Mindry was then able to even the match at 2-2 with a win at No. 3 singles, as he posted a 6-3, 6-4 straight-set win.

Although Tennessee State responded with a win at the No. 6 spot, Cleveland State's Carl Gedlitschka knotted the score once again, as a 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 come-from-behind win at No. 4 singles put the score at 3-3 with just the No. 5 singles match left on court.

Despite dropping the first set, Nico Jamison was able to battle back for a 7-6 win in the second frame, before closing out the match with a 6-4 win in the third set.
