W&M Men's Tennis Opens 2003 Season at UM Spring Fling

CORAL GABLES, FL - William and Mary’s men’s tennis team opened the 2003 spring season today at the UM Spring Fling, an individual tournament hosted by the University of Miami.

On the first day of competition, the Tribe played seven singles and three doubles matches against individuals from the University of Central Florida. In singles, junior Geoff Russell (Phoenix, AZ) won a three-set match against Augusto Sanabria, 6-4, 4-6, 7-5. Sophomores Alex Fish (Scituate, MA) and Zack Malmgren (Cibalo, TX) had an easier time, winning their contests in straight sets. Fish defeated Jacob Auerbach, 6-1, 6-1, while Malmgren went by Rhett Rosen, 6-2, 6-0.

In doubles, Fish and Russell teamed up to defeat UCF’s Sanabria/Gabriel Strangberg, 8-3. The win was the 56th doubles victory in Russell’s career, the 10th best total in school history. Malmgren and sophomore Jeff Kader (Geneva, OH) won against Auerbach and Rosen, 8-1.

William and Mary will continue play in the tournament through the weekend, taking on players from Miami Saturday at 2:00 PM and facing Clemson on Sunday at 9:00 AM.
