3/21/2017 10:48:00 PM | Men's Tennis
MT. PLEASANT, S.C. – The College of Charleston men's tennis team made it nine in a row against their cross-town rival on Tuesday, defeating The Citadel (10-21) 5-2 to rise to 9-5 on the season.
Â
The Cougars blasted through doubles play with a pair of 6-1 wins, with Benedikt Henning and Alec Angradi doing so on court two and Vasily Kichigin and Franz Sydow going likewise on court three.
Â
Alec Angradi rolled past Ryan Templet in flight six 6-0, 6-1, and Juan Estevarena was close behind on court one with a 6-2, 6-0 win over Michael Anzalone to put CofC up 3-0 early. However, the fourth point proved elusive, evading the Cougars for the next 45 minutes.
Â
The Bulldogs put a point on the board with a win on court five to make things interesting, but Benedikt Henning put the match away with a second flight win over Matthew Henson (6-4, 6-3). That left a pair of three-set slugfests on courts three and four, which the two teams split. The Citadel got the upper hand with a 6-1, 2-6, 6-2 win over Rodrigo Encinas, but Vasily Kichigin wrapped play up with a 6-7(4), 6-2, 6-0 win over Noah Nawabi.
Â
The Cougars return to action Thursday at 4 p.m., when they host the DePaul Blue Demons.
