JACKSON – The Millsaps Majors Men's Tennis Team was back in action on Friday afternoon as they welcomed in LeTourneau Yellow Jackets out of the American Southwest Conference. After taking two out of three in the doubles matches, the Majors were terrific in their single matches as they swept through the Yellow Jackets to pick up their fifth win of the season, 8-1.
 
The No. 3 Doubles Team of senior Beau Hinton and sophomore Misa Pjevac played extremely well for Millsaps and cruised to an 8-1 win over their opponents. The No. Team of sophomore Adam Tilly and junior Malte Schick were not too far behind as they took a very tough match over their opponents, 8-5.
 
With a 2-1 lead going into the singles matches, Pjevac and Hinton continued their excellent play from doubles into their singles matches as they both dominated their opponents to easy victories as Pjevac won 6-0, 6-0 and Hinton came through with a 6-2, 6-1 victory. Freshman Charles Rees also took a 6-2, 6-1 win at No. 4 singles.
 
The No. 1-3 singles matches were not as easy, but all three prevailed with victories. Schick found a way as he took the No. 1's match 6-4, 7-5. Senior David Bastian took set one 6-3, before battling to take the match 7-6. The three set match of the day was at the No. 3 singles match featuring junior Adam Tilly.
 
After losing 6-2, Tilly rebounded with a 6-3 victory and took the tiebreak, 10-3 to clinch the big day for singles.
