Hen Netters Win Fourth Straight; Mouber Wins Sixth Straight Match; Nears UD Matches Played Record

 

Dustin Lewis won his 14th singles match of the season

NEWARK, DE - In its final tuneup in preparation of this weekend's Colonial Athletic Association Tournament, the University of Delaware men's tennis team claimed its fourth straight victory with a 6-1 win over Towson at the Delaware Field House Courts Monday.

The Blue Hens (10-6, 4-0 CAA) will find out later this week where they stand in the seedings for the CAA Tournament, which will be held Apr. 19-21 at Richmond, VA. The winner of the tournament earns an automatic berth into the NCAA Tournament.

Delaware captured five of the six singles matches as John Tully won at No. 2, Robert Wirth at No. 3, Dustin Lewis at No. 4, and David Mouber at No. 5. Mouber, who won his sixth straight match, played in his 69th career singles match, one shy of the school record. Four of the six matches went three sets.

In doubles play, Delaware got victories from Sanjay Khindri and Tully at the No. 1 spot and from Lee Kennedy and Mouber at the No. 3 flight.

Lewis and Tully each won their team-high 14th singles win of the season for the Blue Hens while Mouber and Lee Kennedy improved to 25-17 all-time as a double team.
