In singles, freshman Diego Vertiz picked up a nice victory over Inigo Flores of Berry, winning in comeback fashion 4-6, 6-3, 6-4. Vertiz then met up with Aman Manji of Emory, falling in two hard fought sets. 

After dropping a tough first match in the main draw, freshman Alex Centurion had a nice run in the consolation main draw. Centurion won matches against SAA players from Sewanee and Oglethorpe over the weekend in a strong showing.
