SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. - Utah State men's tennis team was shut out by Pacific 7-0 Monday afternoon as they fell to 4-8 on the season.

Jordan Butler and Jonah Nelson gave the Aggies their only victory of the day as they defeated Fredrik Jeppsson and Jonas Jegers in doubles play. USU lost its other two doubles matches and therefore was not awarded any points.

The Big West defending champions swept the Aggies in singles play which gave them the win and improved their record to 7-1 on the season.

USU's next match is scheduled for Friday, March 1 against Brigham Young University in Provo.
