Lehigh also split six singles matches against Norfolk State, but the Spartans swept all three doubles matches. The Mountain Hawks won a set in two separate singles matches against Brown, but the Bears swept four doubles matches and seven singles matches.
Freshman Tyler Hansen was the lone Mountain Hawk to win multiple singles matches on the weekend, downing Jason Sisti of Saint Joseph's 6-4, 6-3 at the fifth flight on Saturday and Samuel Lemberger of Norfolk State in three sets at the fourth flight on Sunday.
Junior Ben Gilman manned the top flight, posting a win against Saint Joseph's, while sophomore Jeremy Kochman played at the second flight with a win over Norfolk State. Senior Mark Goldberg played at the third singles flight over the first two days and notched a straight set win over Paranjay Malhotra of Saint Joseph's.
