WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW 
Saint Francis men's tennis narrowly fell to Assumption College, 4-3, on Monday afternoon in the first day of their spring break slate in Hilton Head, South Carolina.

HOW IT HAPPENED  

While Saint Francis was unable to claim the pivotal doubles point, they secured a victory on court three, thanks to the sophomore duo of Blake Lorenzo and Beau Welker, who defeated their Greyhound opponents with a final score of 6-2, 3-6, 13-11.

In singles action, the Red Flash were on the wrong end of the win-loss column but managed to win three of their six matches. The first win came on court two, where Lorenzo triumphed in a third-set tiebreaker, finishing with a score of 6-4, 4-6, 10-6. The next victory occurred on court five, where another marathon match unfolded. Much like his doubles partner, the sophomore secured the win in three sets, 6-2, 3-6, 13-11. The final match of the day featured the last Red Flash victory of the afternoon, with freshman Mario Beckles earning his eighth victory of the season, winning 6-3, 6-1.
