FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. – The Northern Arizona men's tennis team is back in action this weekend as they head back to Las Vegas, Nev. for the UNLV Easley Fall Invitational. The Lumberjacks' last tournament was two weeks ago in Las Vegas at the ITA Mountain Regional Championships.

Competing at this week's tournament will be the University of Arizona, Boise State, Oregon, Grand Canyon, Seminole State College and Mesa Community College. The Invitational was renamed in 2010 in honor of UNLV Hall of Famer Larry Easley, who passed away from illness in 2005 at the age of 57. Easley coached the UNLV men's tennis team longer than anyone in the school's history.

Northern Arizona is coming off an impressive showing at regionals where the Lumberjacks had eight wins in singles play. Senior Kester Black picked up four wins in singles play during the weekend as he closed out Friday's play going 2-0 with wins over Utah State's Jack Swindells 1-6, 6-4, 6-4 and Utah's Matt Cowley 3-6, 6-4, 6-4.

Freshman Felix Schumann continues to impress in his first collegiate fall schedule at Northern Arizona going 3-2 throughout the weekend in singles play. In his first match in Las Vegas, Schumann defeated New Mexico State's Tom Douglas 6-3, 6-2 and on Thursday, the native of Germany defeated Air Force Academy's Dillon Launius 6-4, 6-0. Schumann's last win came on Friday against Big Sky opponent Harry James from Montana State in two 6-4 sets.

Every pair of NAU won a match in doubles play this weekend as Black and Schumann defeated Montana State's Harry James and Niklas Brandes 8-5. NAU's final pair, Tomas Hons and Adi Zilberstein, had to square off against their teammates Gobatie and Locci to get their lone win in doubles play.

Play will begin Friday, Oct. 31 and last through Sunday, Nov. 2 on the campus of UNLV.
