KENNESAW, Ga. –
The Kennesaw State men's tennis team won the doubles point and three singles matches to defeat Gardner-Webb 4-0 on the Betty Siegel Courts on Friday.
 
"The guys just took care of business today," Director of Tennis Matt Emery said. "We did a good job of executing and closing out the doubles point. Then we jumped on them in singles winning six first sets. I thought we maybe took our foot off the gas just a little near the end but we regrouped and closed it out."
 
In doubles, Raul Garcia and Harvey Conway downed Breno Plentz and Stefano Puga 6-4 on court two. Moments later KSU would clinch the doubles point as Sebastian Osorio and Kevin Patel got past Sebastian Harris and John Spring by a score of 6-4.
 
Seru Tezuka extended the lead to 2-0 when he beat John Spring 6-2, 6-3 on court five. Harvey Conway continued his solid play of late defeating Cathal Butler 6-4, 6-2 on court six. Senior Sergio Ingles clinched the match when he got past Christian Van Wyk 6-4, 7-5 on court two.  
 
The Owls will host Tennessee Tech on Sunday, March 7 at 1 p.m. on the Betty Siegel Courts.
