UNF Moves to 6-0 at Home
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - UNF men's tennis (7-3) stayed hot at home with a 4-0 sweep over Pacific (3-8) on a chilly Tuesday afternoon. The Ospreys are now 6-0 at home this season and winners of their last three.
The Ospreys began the match with a boom after winning 6-1, 6-1 on the top two doubles courts. Both courts finished nearly in unison as the final court was left unfinished, 4-4.Â
UNF continued its momentum as PJ Kotan secured the first singles point for the Ospreys with a 6-1, 6-4 victory in the fifth position. Just a few moments later, Breno Marques took a 6-1, 6-3 win to give the Ospreys a 3-0 lead. At this point, Jonas Hartenstein was up 5-2 in his second set at the top position, and was able to clinch the win with a 6-2, 6-2 victory. The three remaining courts were left unfinished.
The Ospreys will continue their busy schedule this week as they host UAB Thursday, March 16 at 2 p.m., which is their last non-conference match of the year.Â
