Tempe, AZ -- Washington's 15th-ranked men's tennis team, winner of eight of its last nine, was shut out today by 12th-ranked Arizona State 7-0 at Whiteman Tennis Center in Tempe, Ariz. The Sun Devils (11-4, 3-1 Pac-10) swept all six singles matches and three doubles matches. Sophomore Marius Lunde won the lone set on the day for the Huskies (14-6, 1-2). Washington has not defeated Arizona State in the 11 all-time matches dating back to 1979.
