Spartans Defeat Delaware on 2nd Day of VCU 4-1 Invite

Delaware Results | Campbell Results

RICHMOND, Va.
– The senior trio of Pascal Domnik, Igor Braga and Daniel Grauel won its singles matches to propel the Norfolk State men's tennis team to a 3-2 win over Delaware during the second day of the VCU 4-1 Invitational on Saturday afternoon.
 
Later in the day, Domnik won his third singles match this year in the Spartans' 4-1 loss to Campbell to close out the tournament for NSU at the Thalhimer Tennis Center.
 
Against the Blue Hens, the Spartans (1-2) won their first match of the year thanks to those three upperclassmen. Grauel actually had the easiest win, a 6-1, 6-1 triumph over Tyler Flematti at the No. 3 singles position. Domnik, at No. 1 singles, earned a 6-1, 6-3 win over Mike Furr.
 
Braga, at the No. 2 spot, squeaked by Matt Renzi in the first set, 7-5, before a much easier 6-1 win in the second set. Delaware (0-1) earned its points thanks to a default win at No. 4 singles and the victory in the only doubles match. Shane Jeffray and Colin Wong defeated the NSU duo of Terey Hackney and Alex Killam, 8-0.
 
Domnik made it 3-for-3 in victories on the weekend when he downed Campbell's Marthinus Visser, 6-4, 6-2.
 
Braga and Grauel were not as fortunate. Grauel fell by a 6-4, 6-3 score to Jonathan O'Neal at the No. 3 spot, and Braga was swept in No. 2 singles, 6-0, 6-0 by Nicolas Rakitin.
 
Campbell also won the No. 4 singles by default and the doubles match by an 8-0 score, with Lorenz Schwab and Landon Rogers defeating Hackney and Killam.
 
NSU will face East Carolina and UNC Asheville next Friday and Saturday at ECU.
