CORAL GABLES, Fla. – The University of Miami men’s tennis team secured its fourth-straight win, and second in as many days, on Saturday when it dominated the Liberty Flames (3-5), 7-0, at the Neil Schiff Tennis Center.
Saturday’s win marked the fourth time this season that the Hurricanes (9-1) have swept their opponent. In its nine wins this season, Miami has only conceded five total matches.
Doubles play opened with a decisive 6-2 win by the third doubles pair of graduate student Dan Martin and freshman Martin Katz. The second doubles duo of fourth-year junior Juan Martin Jalif and Oren Vasser secured the doubles point in a hard-fought match, defeating Liberty’s Rafael Marques Da Silva and Nicaise Muamba, 6-4.
On court one, Benjamin Hannestad and Franco Aubone were climbing back from a two-set deficit when the doubles point was clinched.
