COLLEGE STATION, Texas – The No. 44 Oklahoma State men's tennis team dropped its second Big 12 Conference match Sunday, falling at No. 17 Texas A&M, 7-0.

OSU, 6-8 (0-2) in 2010, fell behind early after losing at No. 1 and 3 lines in doubles play to give the Aggies a 1-0 lead. The Cowboys were able to claim a win at the No. 2 spot, however, as Eric West and Anton Bobytskyi knocked off Texas A&M's Alexey Grigorov and Alberto Bautista, 9-7.

The Aggies held their momentum into singles play, winning in two sets at the No. 5, 2 and 4 spots, respectively, to put Texas A&M up, 4-0, and decide the dual.

With the team result already decided, the No. 1 and 3 singles matches played tiebreakers to determine third-set winners.

After competitive matches, No. 19 Oleksandr Nedovyesov fell to Texas A&M's No. 21-ranked Austin Krajicek, 2-6, 7-6 (5), 1-0 (8), at No. 1 and Aleksey Bessonov fell to A&M's Alexis Kelgou, 6-4, 5-7, 1-0 (5).

Nedovyesov's loss ends a six-match winning streak for the senior and moves his 2010 No. 1 singles record to 11-3 (1-1).

Oklahoma State resumes competition April 1, facing UCF at 2 p.m. at the DeBois Tennis Center in Stillwater. It will be first home Cowboy tennis match of the 2010 season.
