Boise State wasted little time in handling the Nevada Wolf Pack with a sweep on the road Friday.

RENO, Nev.  - Simon Arca Costas' three-set victory on court two clinched the team victory for Boise State at Nevada in a Mountain West men's tennis match on Friday. The Broncos claimed the doubles point 2-0, then rolled to three straight singles victories by Wyatt DeMulling, Blake Bayldon and Arca Costas, respectively, to record the team's 13 win of the season as they improved to 13-2 overall and 2-1 in league.

In doubles, the Blue and Orange led in all three matches claiming wins on courts three and two, respectively. Arca Costas and Luka Soskic were the first off the court in doubles when they cruised past Nevada's Ben Campi and Loris Zisswiller 6-0. They were followed not soon after by Caden Moortgat and Lawrence Sciglitano at the No. 2 position where they won 6-4. 

In singles, four of the matches went to third sets. DeMulling was the first Bronco to win defeating Zisswiller in straight sets 6-2, 6-2. DeMulling's victory was the 60th in his career as he moved within nine of the Broncos' top-20 list. 

Bayldon moved Boise State to within one of the team victory when he won a set one tiebreaker on his way to a two-set win on court one 7-6(2), 6-2 over the Wolf Pack's Delmas N'Tcha.

The next win came on court two where Arca Costas downed Isaac Nortey in three sets 7-5, 4-6, 6-3. The victory not only clinched the win for Boise State, it was his 50th career singles victory moving him into elite company. 

Boise State will be off to Fresno, Calif., for a Sunday morning encounter versus the Fresno State Bulldogs to wrap up the weekend.
