SAN DIEGO – Regardless of what happens in the postseason, the 2018 version of the Cougars men's tennis team made regular season history.

With their 7-2 win against Point Loma on Saturday afternoon, Azusa Pacific closed out the regular season with 22 wins in their 24 matches.

Since they joined the NCAA Division II ranks four years ago, no Cougar squad has posted that many wins or had a better winning percentage. Moreover the 22 wins mark the most in the regular season for the program since 2004.

Azusa Pacific is assured of at least three more matches during next week's PacWest Conference tournament in Surprise, Ariz. The event starts on Thursday against an opponent to be determined. The Cougars are in prime position to qualify for the NCAA Division postseason as well. The official selection for that is Tuesday, April 24.
