Gustaf Strom won in straight sets at No. 1 singles as the Arizona men's tennis team advanced to the Pac-12 Tournament semifinals by blanking Utah 4-0 on Saturday in San Diego.

Strom won 6-2, 6-3, and Filip Malbasic and Herman Hoeyeraal also picked up singles victories for No. 19-ranked UA, which claimed the doubles point.

Stanford will face ASU in the other semifinal. The championship match will air on the Pac-12 Network at 3 p.m. Monday.

The UA women's tennis team finished its season at 13-12 with a 4-1 loss to Washington in the Pac-12 Tournament in San Diego on Friday.
