TULSA, Okla. -- The University of North Dakota men's tennis team rallied with a pair of three-set victories on the middle courts to defeat Oral Roberts, 4-3, on Saturday afternoon from Tulsa. 

UND (9-2, 2-0 Summit League) stretches its winning streak to a program-record nine straight and moves to 2-0 in Summit League for the first time in program history. 

In doubles play, ORU rebounded from a loss on the middle court with wins from the first and third positions to take a 1-0 lead in the match. Edmond Aynedjian and Jake Kuhlman notched the lone win in two-man play for the Fighting Hawks with a 6-0 sweep. 

After a 6-1, 6-3 win by Johnatan Parat on the No. 5 court to remain perfect in singles play and tie the match at one, the Golden Eagles rattled off back-to-back victories to take a 3-1 lead and push the match to its brink. Among those defeats was Andreja Petrovic, who fell for the first time for the first time in his collegiate career on Saturday, but Lukas Buth picked up the freshman from the No. 2 court by rallying with a 6-2, 6-4 win in the second and third set to cut the score to 3-2. 

Facing elimination, UND turned to its middle courts. Both Aynedjian and Kuhlman had dropped their first sets, 7-6, before rallying to even their matches at one with victories in the second set. Aynedjian won his tiebreaker, 6-4, to even the overall score at three and turn all eyes to Kuhlman and the fourth court. There, the Grand Forks native held on for a 7-6 win and sealed the comeback victory for the Hawks. 

North Dakota will depart for Florida next weekend to begin a tour of the Sunshine State, starting with a match against Fairfield on Mar. 14.
