No. 7 Kenyon overwhelms Wittenberg, 7-0

GAMBIER, Ohio -- Playing in the Jasper Tennis Center on Friday afternoon, the Kenyon College men's tennis team, currently ranked at No. 7 in NCAA Division III, whipped through a 7-0 North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) victory over the visiting Tigers from Wittenberg University.

The triumph improved Kenyon's overall record to 14-2 and its conference mark to 3-0. On the other hand, Wittenberg's loss dropped the Tigers to 1-14 overall and 0-3 in NCAC play.

The Owls gained their first team point against the Tigers by sweeping the doubles matches. Gianluca Bocanegra and Rohan Sriram paired up for a 6-0 win at No. 3 doubles, while the duo of Jay Kedar Dixit and Juozas Cioladis produced the same score at No. 2 doubles.

At No. 1 doubles, Paulo Pocasangre Kreling and Alejandro Gonzalez came away with a 6-1 win. Gonzalez sat out singles play, but Pocasangre Kreling went on to record a 6-1, 6-1 win over Wittenberg's Ethan Libby in the No. 1 match. Pocasangre Kreling is now 15-0 in dual-match singles play.

Kenyon got straight-set shutout wins from Bocanegra at No. 6, from Kedar Dixit at No. 5, and from Rakkan Audeh at No. 3. Sriram took the No. 4 match, dropping just one game, while Rishil Kondapaneni did the same at No. 2.

The Owls will get right back to work tomorrow, when they host Ohio Wesleyan University in another conference dual, one slated to start at 2 p.m.
