Sea Gulls sweep Blazers in straight sets

FREDERICK, Md. - The Salisbury University men's tennis team made short work of Capital Athletic Conference opponent Hood College on Tuesday afternoon as the Sea Gulls glided to a 9-0 sweep of the Blazers.

Salisbury (12-3, 4-1 CAC) was without the services of sophomore Matt Nicholson and junior Brendan Kincaid for the day as freshmen Scott Burtzlaff and Evan Thomas took over the top two singles spots and rolled to straight set victories.

Burtzlaff and Thomas later teamed up in doubles competition as the two won 8-0 over the top Hood (5-8, 1-3 CAC) pair of Mogo Nkate and Carlos Funes, 8-0, to improve to 13-2 overall and 5-0 in conference play.

Junior Dean Sonetirot, sophomores Sasha Felikson and Chris Haines and freshman Jason Williams all won their singles matches.

The Sea Gulls return to the court at 3:30 p.m., Thursday, April 5, as they host Haverford in a Atlantic South regional match at the SU Tennis Complex.
