CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas – NM State was able to battle its way to an appearance in the fifth-place match of the H-E-B Tournament of Champions where they found themselves across from WAC foe Abilene Christian. Unfortunately, the Aggies were unable to get going on Saturday morning as they fell 4-1 to the Wildcats.
 
DOUBLES

• The Aggies' best showing in doubles action came from the tandem of Corey Clarke and Patrick Lohmann who led 5-4 over their opponents before ACU clinched the doubles point by way of wins at No. 1 and No. 2.

SINGLES

• Luca Fé D'Ostiani fought his way to his second straight singles win as he defeated ACU's Mihaly Deli 6-1, 6-3.
• However, this would be the lone singles match that would finish with an Aggie on top as the Wildcats went on to win at the No. 1, No. 5 and No. 4 spots to close out the match.
