The Swedish sensation won all five singles matches in straight sets, including a 6-1, 6-4 win over Division II Cedarville University's Nathan Hollis and a 6-2, 6-0 win over Jaume Riera Galindo from Spring Arbor University, an NAIA institution. Hedlund also battled to a pair of tiebreak wins in doubles, as he teamed with Evan Nelson (Scituate, Mass./Scituate) for an 8-7 (7-2) win over Saint John's University (Minn.) and a 7-6 (7-4) win with David Rodriguez (St. Ann's, Trinidad & Tobago/Fatima College) against D-II Cedarville.
