Men's Tennis triumphs over Lee

Looks towards ITA National Indoor Championship

PENSACOLA, Fla.- In their first home match of 2020, the UWF men's tennis team quickly extinguished Lee by a score of 6-1, Sunday afternoon at the Ralph "Skeeter" Carson Tennis Complex.

The win moves the Argonauts to 6-1 and 4-0 in Gulf South Conference play while Lee drops to 2-3, and 0-1 in the GSC.

The third ranked men got off to a quick start in doubles play as the Swedish duo of Serdar Bojadiev and Adam Svensson easily defeated the 20th ranked duo in the nation, Bruno Medeiros and Antonio Pons, by a score of 6-2.  

Nicholas Lecoutre and Gabriel Nery plus the pairing of Salvador Bandeira and Juan Motta finished off the sweep in doubles action as they won 6-4 and 6-3, respectively.

Singles play would see Lee take their only match of the day as Nico Ramirez defeated Nicholas Lecoutre 4-6, 6-4, 7-0.  However, the Argos would bounce back in the remaining matches, winning four of five in straight sets with Motta, Bandeira, Svensson and Pedro Cordeiro each capturing a victory.  Senior Juan Cabrera was the only Argo to need a third-set tiebreaker as he won 6-2, 4-6, 6-1.
