TULSA, Okla. ― On a chilly Easter evening at the Michael D. Case Tennis Center, the 49th ranked Tulsa men's tennis team held off Temple 4-2 to extend its win streak to three and collect the 10th win of the year at the Case Tennis Center. TU improves to 14-9 this spring, with tomorrow night's home contest against No. 27 SMU the regular season finale.
Â
The Hurricane won the doubles point, with wins from familiar faces in new spots. Kody Pearson, who has played No. 1 doubles all year, paired up with Callum Gale and won 6-3 at No. 3 doubles, while Adham Gaber/Ezequiel Santalla secured the point with a 6-2 victory at No. 2 doubles.
Â
After Stefan Hampe won by default and Gaber won in straight sets at No. 4 singles, Tulsa took a 3-0 lead. The Owls would battle back, posting wins at No. 3 and No. 5 singles to cut into the lead.
Â
Pearson, who dropped his first set 2-6, chipped away and came back to win in three sets at No. 1 singles, 2-6, 6-2, 7-5, to clinch the victory for Tulsa. The 87th ranked Pearson is now 13-4 from the first slot in singles.
Â
Tulsa will look to continue its win streak tomorrow night when the Hurricane host No. 27 SMU at 5 p.m. at the Michael D. Case Tennis Center, before the conference tournament begins Thursday.
