Gulls Win Second Straight, Improve to 3-3

HILTON HEAD, S.C.-  The men's tennis team evened their record at 3-3 on the season by winning their second straight match.  The win, a convincing 8-1 victory over Frostburg State, saw the Gulls sweep the doubles play for the second straight day.

The pairings of Benjamin Randlett (Middlebury, Vt.) with Eric Gandrup (Sudbury, Mass.) at #1 and Clay Arnold (Ivoryton, Conn.) with Corbin Tulley (Hollis, N.H.) at #3 both took their match-ups by final scores of 8-1.  The #2 pairing of Evan Ross (Worcester, Mass.) with Michael Dolph (Stratford, Conn.) were able to keep rolling as they posted a 8-0 sweep.  

Endicott's success carried into the singles matchups as sophomore Timothy Forance (Natick, Mass.) swept his opponent as the #3 singles player 6-0, 6-0.  Michael Lauretano (Winchester, Mass.) continued the winning ways as he nearly duplicated Forance's performance by winning 6-0, 6-1 at #5 singles.  Justin Warshavsky (East Hartford, Conn.) was able to bounce back against Frostburg as the sophomore was able to notch a 6-1, 6-3 victory at #4.  

The #2 singles matchup saw the Gulls win again as Dolph was able to record a 6-2, 6-1 victory.  The lone Frostburg State win came at #1 singles which saw senior Jake Cohen (Barrington, R.I.) retire due to injury.  At the time of his withdrawal, Cohen had lost a tight first set 5-7 before trailing 1-4 in the second.  The Gulls were quick to bounce back as Andrew Zurheide (New London, N.H.) won the #6 singles match 6-2, 6-2 to seal the 8-1 victory for the Gulls.

Endicott returns home to Beverly, Mass. after a 3-1 spring break trip.  The Gulls travel to CCC foe Eastern Nazarene on March 27th before returning to the Nest to host North Shore rival Salem State on March 28th.
