Men's Tennis Settles for First MAC Freedom Loss of the Season to Lebanon Valley, 6-1

Madison, NJ (April 17)- In continuation from the week prior, The FDU-Florham Men's Tennis team (7-5, 3-1 MAC Freedom) hosted Lebanon Valley (8-10, 2-1 MAC Freedom) for a MAC Freedom match-up in hope of keeping a perfect conference record alive, but saw a 6-1 loss to the Flying Dutchman.

 
The only point that the Devils were able to secure was from both doubles matches as Matthew Emery (Howell, NJ) and Ronald Duval (Old Bridge, NJ) took Doubles #! By a 6-3, and saw Kelvin Liwag (Marlboro, NJ) and Nick Weglinski (Wayne, NJ) follow suit with a 6-3 victory in Doubles #2. Doubles #3 saw no players from either team participate.
 
Singles #1 held Emery to  6-2, 6-4, which ultimately was awarded to the Lebanon Valley player. Duval held his own in Singles #2 as he fought for three sets before taking a 2-6, 7-5, 6-4 loss.
 
Liwag was responsible for the match up in Singles #3 but fell short as he saw a 7-6, 6-3 score with a 4-0 tie breaker not in his favor or the Devils'. Playing into three sets as well was Weglinski, but he took the loss after putting up score of 7-6 with a 3-0 tiebreaker, 6-1 in the second set, and a 6-1 score in the final set.
 
Singles #5 held Chase Miller (Freehold, NJ) at three sets as well, but gave Lebanon Valley the final point after  6-4, 6-3, 10-6 set battles.
 
Singles #6 had no players from either team and resulted in the point falling to Lebanon Valley with the majority of the points belonging to the Flying Dutchman, 6-1.
 
 
FDU-Florham will have a day of rest before hosting Stevens for its final MAC Freedom match of the week on Saturday, April 19 at 2 PM.
