MINNEAPOLIS - Purdue men's tennis players Mateus Silva and Lucas Dages bowed out of the B1G Men's Tennis Indoor Championships Sunday while playing at Minnesota's Baseline Tennis Center.

Michigan State's Harry Jadun dealt Dages a 6-3, 6-3 setback in their first consolation match, forcing the Purdue sophomore (3-5) out of the tournament.
The semifinals and finals of the B1G Indoor Championships are scheduled for Monday. Complete draws and results can be found on the tournament central page.
