Ospreys Remain Unbeaten At Home
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - North Florida men's tennis (5-4) got tough to win doubles, claimed some huge tiebreakers in singles and eventually swept visiting UNCW (5-3), 4-0, Friday, Feb. 25. UNF is on a three-match winning streak and remains unbeaten at home on the season.
How it Happened
With both teams having won a doubles court, the first point of the afternoon came down to three doubles. Matt Carroll and Nilo Duarte clinched the point by winning 7-4 in the seven-point tiebreaker.
Up 1-0, Rodrigo Crespo continued his hot tennis by cruising to a 6-1, 6-4 win at the fifth slot. Duarte followed suit with his own sweep and Carroll was next, earning a tiebreaker victory in the first set before taking care of business, 6-2, in the second session.
