After dropping the match’s first point, freshman John Glassner took every point after, to take the match 6-1, 6-0. Freshman Tanner Allison and McReynolds were the next two that finish, with both taking 6-0, 6-0 victories. In the final match in the top singles spot, Foster took the first set 6-0, where he dropped the first point of set two, before taking the final six points of the match to win set two 6-1.
