Bethlehem, PA – Almost two weeks after the Mountain Hawks dominated doubles play at the UConn Invitational, the doubles championships from that tournament we’re contested Wednesday afternoon at the Ulrich varsity tennis courts on Lehigh’s Goodman campus.

 

Since both the Flight A and B doubles finals were comprised entirely of Lehigh players, tournament officials allowed the Mountain Hawks to take home the hardware and decide the winners on their own turf.

 

So, on a cool October afternoon it was teammates against teammates for the Mountain Hawks. In the Flight A doubles final junior Randall Smalley teamed with freshman John Nespoli to defeat senior Ty Esler and Alfredo Fernandez-Concha 8-6. With the win Smalley and Nespoli will represent Lehigh at the ITA Division I regional championships.

 

In the Flight B final, it was sophomores Ryan Lloyd and Brad Nelson staking claim as Lehigh’s number three doubles team, defeating senior Andrew Shapiro and junior Jon Swanson 8-5.

 

The Mountain Hawks continue their fall tennis schedule when they participate at the ITA Division I regional championships starting October 21, in Blacksburg, Virginia
