Men's Tennis Takes Near-Sweep at Bethune-Cookman

The Stetson men's tennis team won every match except a forfeit Wednesday afternoon at Bethune-Cookman.  The Hatters swept all three doubles matches and took five of the six singles competitions. 

Joey Jones improved his season singles record to 4-2 as he continued to dominate.  He defeated Stefan James, 6-1, 6-2 in the #4 singles match to win his third straight and later paired with Serguei Boulanov for an 8-2 doubles win.  Boulanov also recorded a singles victory, taking out Thabani Sithole in the #1 competition, 6-4, 6-3. 

The Hatters improved to 2-4 and have won their last two matches.  Bethune-Cookman dropped to 0-2.
