Box Score
ASHLAND, Ky. – It wasn't a walk in the park for fourth-ranked Campbellsville to blank the University of Pikeville men's tennis team 9-0 on Sunday as the Bears pushed it to the edge in doubles and singles play.
The Tigers moved to 8-0 overall with a win in the Mid-South Conference opener for both teams. UPIKE is now 1-2 as its last two matches had been canceled due to inclement weather.
Chrys Castro and Alejandro Reyes are the fifth-ranked doubles duo in the nation and UPIKE's Bailey Horne and Andres Alvarez gave them everything they wanted in an 8-6 loss at No. 1 doubles. Devin Sgubin and Hassan Haider lost 8-2 to Pablo Alonso and Alberto Perez at No. 2.
UPIKE played with just four available players as it took forfeit losses at the bottom two singles spots and third doubles.
Castro needed an extra 10-point tiebreaker to finish off Horne as he won 3-6, 6-3, 10-4 at the No. 1 seed and Sgubin took Pablo Alonso Muniz past regulation at third singles in a 7-6, 6-3 loss.
Alvarez also batted at the second singles position where he fell to Reyes 6-3, 6-4.
