BALTIMORE (April 20, 2023) – Howard University men's tennis team finished the regular season with a 5-2 loss at Morgan State (MSU).

Dawson grabbed his eighth win of the season, topping MSU's Makkijha Brown in straight sets (6-4, 7-6 [5-0]), while the New Orleans native earned his first conference victory of the year with a two-set win against Bertin Karenzi (6-4, 6-4).
 
Junior Hassimiyou Dieng (Dakar, Senegal) and second-year Bison Daniel Dunac (Washington) battled but fell in three sets.
 
In doubles play, Dawson and junior Justin Cadeau (West Orange, N.J.) defeated Brown and Sebastian Lopez, 6-3, but the Bears would win the other two contests.
 
With the loss, HU ended the regular season at 4-12 (2-3 MEAC).
