Men's Tennis Quakers Fall in Match Against Cedarville For Immediate Release: RICHMOND, Ind. — The Earlham College men’s tennis team ended a run of five straight home matches on Tuesday as the Quakers dropped a 5-2 decision to Cedarville University. A traditional force in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) Cedarville started the contest by taking all three doubles matches on the Trueblood Fieldhouse indoor courts in the Athletics and Wellness Center. Over the past two seasons, the Yellow Jackets (1-3) have 37 wins. “The Cedarville men’s team was our first real test of the season,” Earlham coach Justin Carrier said. “Despite the fact that we went down, I know that we will use this experience to our advantage in our upcoming matches.” There were several close matches in singles and Earlham had two victories in six contests. After losing his opening set, senior Nate Henderson (Hyde Park, MA/Concord) posted a comeback victory at No. 3. Junior Peter DiLalla (Cleveland Heights, OH/Cleveland Heights) picked up a win at No. 4 in a tiebreaker. The Quakers (4-1) are at Wabash College on Saturday and Sunday for the Kerry Seward Tournament. The event gets underway at 9 a.m. each day. The next dual match for Earlham is at Denison University on March 27. Scoresheet. —EC — Contact:
