Iowa men’s tennis senior Garret Dunn and junior Michael Swank lost in the second round of the Intercollegiate Tennis Association All American Tournament in Tulsa, Okla., on Tuesday.

The duo received a bye in the first round because of their No. 55 ranking. They then lost to Japie De-Klerk and Alejandro Sanchez of host school Tulsa (8-4).

It was the first tournament of the year for Dunn and Swank as a doubles pair.

“It’s good it was only our first tournament of the fall; we have a lot of time to work out the kinks before the next fall tournaments and even the spring matches,” Dunn said in a message on Tuesday. “We just need to make sure we serve and return well. That’s what we’ll work on over the next couple of weeks.”

The next tournament on the schedule for Iowa is the regional in Minneapolis on Oct. 18-21.
