BRIDGEWATER, Va. --- The rain held off just
long enough for the Bridgewater Eagles men's tennis team to make
quick work of the visiting Roanoke Maroons by a 5-0 score on
Saturday afternoon in the Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC)
Quarterfinal matchup between the two teams at the BC Tennis
Courts.
In doubles play, the duo of Evan Stack and Brandon Larsen cruised
to an 8-1 victory to get the Eagles rolling. Freshman Christian
Lynn and junior Peter Hawkins teamed up to post an 8-3 victory at
number two doubles in the closest match of the day.
At number three, the tandem of freshman Mike Cable and senior Brent
Floyd rolled to an easy 8- 2 victory to give the Eagles a
commanding 3-0 lead heading to singles.
Floyd made quick work of things at number four, blanking opponent
Chris Migliarese by a 6-0, 6-0 tally. Larsen finished up the match
with an easy 6-0, 6-0 win at number two over Lewis Young to hand
the Eagles the win.
The matchups at one, three, five and six singles all went
unfinished.
Bridgewater advances to next Saturday's semifinal matchup, set to
be played on the campus of Randolph-Macon. The Eagles will tangle
with the third-seeded Guilford.
