Men's Tennis improves to 5-1 with win over Duquesne

HARMAR, Pa. (February 14, 2020) -- The Morgan State men's tennis team improved to 5-1 on the season with a 5-2 victory over Duquesne yesterday at the Alpha Tennis and Fitness of Pittsburgh.

The duo of Cem Erturk and Oguzhan Ceylan continued their winning ways at number 2 doubles by defeating Conron/Rodriquez Vidal 6-2. Unfortunately, the Bears lost the doubles point falling 6-0 at number 3 with Nihit Rawal and Sebastian Lopez, followed by a 7-5 loss at number 1 doubles by Serhii Kharchev and Mark Amaefule.

Morgan State evened the score quickly with Nihit Rawal dispatching his opponent at number 2 singles by a score of 6-0, 6-0.

The Bears took a 2-1 lead when Oguzhan Ceylan posted a 6-4, 6-3 win over Rodriquez-Vidal at number 3. Undefeated number 1 singles player Cem Erturk came from behind to win over Macioli, 1-6, 6-3, 6-2 to put the Bears on the brink of victory. Clinching the win in easy fashion at number 4 was Sebastian Lopez winning 6-0, 6-2 over Dassonayoke.

Serhii Kharchev dropped the number 5 singles match, but Mark Amaefule would finish off the win for the Bears at number 6 by winning 6-1, 6-2, continuing his undefeated streak in singles.

The Bears return to action with a match at Old Dominion on Sunday.
