Strong Showing for Men's Tennis at Oberlin Invitational

OBERLIN, Ohio - The men's tennis squad traveled to the campus of Oberlin College this weekend to take part in the Oberlin Invitational.

Day one of the two day tournament was forced indoors, as inclement weather came over the region. The change in plans didn't seem to bother the Gators much, as they would rattle off six doubles victories including two by the pairing of Patrick Cole and Kevin Kacer. The pairing of Frank Mosconi and Daniel Conroy also won both doubles matches, as Allegheny would look to continue their winning ways during their singles matches.

After moving indoors, the decision was made to have all singles matches on day one be played as eight game pro sets. Once again, the change did not affect Allegheny one bit, as Allegheny would win seven of its 10 singles matches. Cole, Mosconi, Conroy, Alex Hurtuk, Reighr Doughty, Timothy O'Brien, and Robert Litz all came away victorious for Allegheny as they would end day one 6-4 in doubles play, and 7-3 in singles matches.

Day two saw Allegheny continue their strong play, as the Gators would go 4-1 in doubles play including a third win from Cole and Kacer. Allegheny would wrap up the weekend by going 6-4 in a shortened final singles round. Cole, who would defeat Joe Horvath of Baldwin Wallace 6-3, 6-2, would finish the weekend undefeated, going 3-0 in doubles play and 2-0 in singles competition.

The Gators will travel to Grove City on Wednesday, October 5 for their final match of the fall season.
