Box Score
ORLANDO, Fla. – The Army West Point men's tennis team stretched its current winning streak to four straight with a 4-2 win over service academy rival Air Force on Sunday, March 13. The Black Knights record improves to 9-6 while the Falcons slip to 3-11 this spring.
Army won the doubles point in its seventh straight match, only losing five games along the way in today's match. Junior Sam Lampman's return to the Black Knights lineup has been particularly helpful in doubles as he and Michael Nguyen have now won four straight contests.
The Cadets notched the three wins in singles that they needed to win the match via victories from junior Grant Riechmann, freshman David Mitchell, and sophomore Michael Nguyen. Riechmann and Mitchell have now won back-to-back contests while Nguyen has rattled off three straight wins. Riechmann is also now 3-1 in the second doubles flight this season as he beat Lucas Fumagalli 7-6, 6-4.
Army has one last match on its spring break trip when it visits Winter Park, Fla., on Tuesday for a match with Rollins. The meet with the Division II squad will begin at 3 p.m.
