WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- The fifth-ranked Wake Forest men's tennis team bounced back from a loss to Texas on Saturday with three wins on Sunday at the Wake Forest Tennis Complex. The Demon Deacons blanked No. 6 Texas Tech, 4-0, and defeated Norfolk State by scores of 6-0 and 6-1.
The match against the Red Raiders was the first top-10 showdown in Winston-Salem since 2007. The victory was the Deacons' fourth this season against a team ranked sixth or higher. The trio of wins improved their record on the season to 12-3.
No. 5 Wake Forest 4, No. 6 Texas Tech 0
Wake Forest started the day by overcoming an early disadvantage in the doubles competition to win, 4-0.
After the dropping No. 3 doubles, the Deacs evened the competition when Petros Chrysochos and Jon Ho took down No. 56 Alex Sendegeya and Bjorn Thomson, 6-4. Moments later, No. 21 Christian Seraphim and Skander Mansouri finished an upset of the second-ranked tandem in the nation, Hugo Dojas and Felipe Soares, by the same score to secure the 1-0 lead.
In singles, Dennis Uspensky quickly padded Wake Forest's lead with a 6-0, 6-2 victory at No. 5.
To seal the win, Chrysochos and Mansouri made big second-set rallies. After winning the opening frame at No. 2, 6-2, Chrysochos negated a 4-1 deficit in the second set to win 6-4 against the No. 97 Dojas. Mansouri erased an even bigger Red Raider lead to down No. 18 Soares at No. 1. Following a 6-1 win in the opening set, the Tunis, Tunisia native won six-straight games in the second set to dig himself out of a 5-1 hole to win, 7-5.
Seraphim, Ho and Romain Bogaerts had their singles matches stopped short due to the team win.
