Men's Tennis Quakers Stay Unbeaten After Four Matches For Immediate Release: RICHMOND, Ind. — Rain may have forced the Earlham College men’s tennis team inside Saturday, but that didn’t slow down the undefeated Quakers. Earlham beat Capital University 6-1 on the Trueblood Fieldhouse indoor courts in the Athletics and Wellness Center for the Quakers fourth straight victory. “This a great win for our program,” Earlham coach Justin Carrier said. “We have not defeated Capital during my time here as a coach or a player, so this was an important match.” The Quakers (4-0) won the opening point with a pair of wins in doubles. Junior Scott Miller (Greensburg, IN/Greensburg) and senior Nate Henderson (Hyde Park, MA/Concord) were victorious at No. 1. Senior Andy Nelson (Mantoloking, NJ/St. Mark’s School) and junior Peter DiLalla (Cleveland Heights, OH/Cleveland Heights) combined for their fourth win of the season at No. 2. The No. 3 match was not played because only two wins are needed to take the doubles point In singles action, Miller, Nelson, Henderson and DiLalla won at the first four positions. Senior David Peake (Fredericksburg, TX/St. Stephen Episcopal) won at No. 6. First-year Shiro Fukuzawa (Nagano, Japan) fell behind early at No. 5, but battled back only to eventually drop his match 8-5. The Quakers finish their stretch of five consecutive home matches on Tuesday against Cedarville University. The non-conference contest begins at 3 p.m. Scoresheet. —EC — Contact:
