W&M Men’s Tennis Defeats JMU, 4-0, in CAA Quarterfinals

WILLIAMSBURG, VA - William and Mary’s men’s tennis team, ranked 73rd in the nation, began its defense of last season’s Colonial Athletic Association championship with a 4-0 win over James Madison at the McCormack-Nagelsen Tennis Center this morning in the quarterfinal round of the CAA Tournament.

The Tribe, seeded third in the tournament, improves to 12-15 on the year, while the sixth-seeded Dukes end their season with a 13-13 record.

The match began with singles, where the Tribe won the first four completed matches to take the quarterfinal victory. Sophomore Alex Cojanu (Hallandale, FL) was off first, defeating John Snead, 6-2, 6-2 at No. 2. Not long after, sophomore Matt Rubenstein (East Hampton, NY) put the Tribe ahead, 2-0, with his 6-2, 6-1 win at No. 3 over Brian Clay. On court one, junior Colin O’Brien (Dublin, Ireland) defeated Jesse Tarr, 6-0, 2-6, 6-3, to put the Tribe one point away from the team victory. Freshman Alexander Zuck (Toms River, NJ) clinched the College’s quarterfinal win, defeating Bob Allensworth at No. 4, 6-2, 7-6 (4). The remaining matches were abandoned once the team match had been decided.

The Tribe will return to action in the semifinal round of the CAA Tournament tomorrow, when the Green and Gold faces either Old Dominion or Delaware at 10:00 AM. That match is scheduled to be played at the Huntington Park Tennis Center in Newport News.
