Men’s Tennis Dominates Doubles Play At Purdue Invite
September 18, 2021 | Men's Tennis
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - The Ball State men's tennis team opened fall action on a high note, dominating doubles competition against DePaul, Purdue and IUPUI at the Purdue Fall Invite.
In a hidden dual format, the Cardinals went 9-2 in doubles action by sweeping all four matches against IUPUI. The Cardinals would drop one match apiece to both host Purdue and DePaul.
Longtime Ball State head coach Bill Richards used a mixture of lineups throughout doubles play. Parrish Simmons and Vince Orlando played at the top spot against DePaul giving up only one point to the Blue Demons, winning the match, 6-1.
The Cardinals were also successful against the Boilermakers taking courts two and three from Big Ten foe Purdue.
Ball State closed the day by sweeping all four competitions from the Jaguars, with Eli Herran and Petar Petrovic having the best performance by pairing up for a 6-1 take down over IUPUI's No. 3 duo of Kamil Kozerski and Sean Bailey.
The Cardinals continue action at the Purdue Fall Invite the remainder of the weekend with singles matchups being play Saturday and Sunday.
