On the other hand, the No. 2 duo of Evan Nelson (Scituate, Mass./Scituate) and Reid Stasolla (Pittsburgh, Pa./Fox Chapel) played their fifth match of the year together and produced an identical 8-4 score.

Jarvie and David Rodriguez (St. Ann's, Trinidad and Tobago/Fatima College) each earned their team-leading fifth singles wins. On the second singles court, Rodriguez lost only one game en route to a 6-1, 6-0 triumph. In the third spot, Jarvie took down Owen Sinnott, 6-1, 6-1.
