DeLAND,
Fla. - Campbell captured the doubles point and took three singles
matches to defeat Lipscomb 4-0 Thursday night in the first round of
the A-Sun Championships.
Campbell started the match with a 1-0 lead by capturing the doubles
point. Larbi
Lamzouri and Josep
Baro defeated David Salazar and Miguel Cortez (8-6) in the two
spot while Davy
Sum and Ondrej
Kralik clinched the point for the Camels by picking up a
victory in the three spot.
A-Sun freshman of the year, Fernando
Guillen, gave Campbell a 2-0 lead by defeating Tanner Brown
(6-0, 6-2) in the three position. Shortly following that match, David
Clavera put the Bisons in a 3-0 hole by defeating Miguel Cortez
(6-3, 6-1) in the four spot.
Kralik clinched the match for the Camels by beating Mario Hernandez
(6-3, 6-2) in the six position. The final three matches were called
due to time constraints.
Campbell will face second seeded East Tennessee State in the
semifinals tomorrow at 4:30 p.m. Stetson and top seeded UNF will
face off in the other semifinal at 2:00 p.m. This is the fourth
season in the row that the Camels have reached the semifinals, and
the third year in a row that they will be facing ETSU. The Bucs
defeated Campbell 5-2 on March 29.
"I think we are going to have a good chance to win against ETSU,"
said Sum. "It was close last time we played them and it is going to
be hard without Dominik (Kaniewski), but I still think we have a
good shot to beat them."
