YORK, PA – The York College men's tennis team snapped a four-match losing streak as they downed Frostburg State University 5-1 in a Capital Athletic Conference match indoors at the Wisehaven Tennis Club in York, PA. The Spartans improve to 5-6 overall and 1-4 in the conference while the Bobcats fall to 1-10 overall and 0-5 in the league.
