No. 49 Wabash Defeats Scots

Men's tennis falls 6-1

 
The College of Wooster men's tennis team had a tough time against No. 49 Wabash College, falling 6-1 in a North Coast Athletic Conference matchup.
 
The weather caused the match to be played indoors at the Collett Tennis Center, just three courts at a time.
 
Wabash took the advantage early after sweeping doubles play. Enzo Lopes and Anthony VanOyen fell 6-0 in the No. 1 flight, while Walker Wood and Andrew Wissman lost 6-1 in the No. 3 flight.
 
The No. 2 team of Bennett Dickerson and Ian Royse fared the best in a 6-4 loss.
 
In singles play, Wooster went up 3-0 after taking the No. 2 and No. 3 flights. Royse held the early advantage in the No. 2 flight but could not find a way to close it out in a 1-6, 6-3, 6-1 loss.
 
Lopes played competitively in the No. 3 flight but was on the wrong end of a 6-3, 6-4 score.
 
VanOyen gave Wooster its first point and a fighting chance, defeating Murilo Guarniari 3-6, 6-4, 6-3 in the No. 1 flight.
 
Yet, Wabash (13-10) would take the match point with the next decision, winning the No. 4 flight as Tharaskesh Ashokar took down Dickerson, 6-4, 6-1.
 
From there, Wood lost 6-3, 6-1 in the No. 6 spot. Wissman went to a 10-point tiebreaker in the No. 5 flight but could not pull away in a 3-6, 6-1, 1-0 (10) result. 

With the six-team NCAC Tournament looming, Wooster (10-5) sits tied in fifth with Wabash with a 3-4 conference record. Wooster stays in Indiana to face DePauw University (13-9, 4-3 NCAC) on Sunday for its final NCAC regular season matchup.
