Campbell Defeats UNC Asheville, 4-0, to Reach Big South Final
BLACKSBURG, Va. – Campbell defeated UNC Asheville Friday afternoon 4-0 to advance to the final of the Big South Conference men's tennis championship.
The semifinal matches were moved indoors to the Burrows-Burleson Tennis Center on the Virginia Tech campus because of thunderstorms that crossed the Southeastern U.S. Friday.
Fifth-seeded Radford (16-6) upset top seed Gardner-Webb (13-8) 4-2 Friday morning to advance to Saturday's 12:00 p.m. final, which will be played outdoors on the Radford campus, or indoors at Virginia Tech, depending on weather conditions.
Second-seeded Campbell (16-5) won the doubles point – with the deciding match coming in a tiebreaker victory by Bastien Huon and Ondrej Labik at No.-2.
Dustin Werner, Raphael Calzi and Gerard Sola all claimed straight-sets singles decisions for the defending champs, who will play in the league title match for the fifth time in the last six years.
Werner and Calzi won in singles and doubles for the second-straight day and the Camels claimed their ninth victory in their last 10 matches.
