CHARLESTON, S.C. – The College of Charleston men's tennis team (13-6) plays its final regular season contest this Saturday, when it will travel to the Queen City to take on the Charlotte 49ers (10-13) at noon.
Â
The Cougars split their matches last week, beating the Hampton Pirates 7-0 before narrowly falling to Old Dominion by a score of 4-3. Juan Estevarena was named CAA Player of the Week after going 2-0 in singles, 2-0 in doubles and defeating No. 37 Adam Moundir in top flight action. Benedikt Henning meanwhile extended his unbeaten streak in singles to 11 matches from the second flight position.
Â
CofC will reenact the finale to the 2016 regular season, where they closed things out against the 49ers as well. That match took place at Patriots Point, and resulted in a 4-3 victory for the Cougars. Estevarena, Zack Lewis, Vasily Kichigin and Garrett Gordon led the charge in singles play to lift the College after the team surrendered the doubles point.
Â
The 49ers have struggled as of late, dropping seven of their previous eight matchups. Their lone victory came against Radford by a score of 5-2. Oriol Puig Forne and Alejandro Garcia Moreno lead the team in singles play with matching 13-10 records, doing their work in the middle flights.
