The UNC Greensboro (UNCG) men's tennis team earned a 5-2 victory over The Citadel in Southern Conference (SoCon) action on Friday afternoon at the UNCG Tennis Courts. UNCG earned the doubles point to get on the board first, 1-0. It started with John Gabelic and Eric Lindemann capturing a doubles victory, 6-1, over Nick Stroumpis and Anthony Osipov. Luke Thomson and Tymofiy Khrystuk then teamed up to defeat Noah Van Dyke and Tucker Hendrix, 6-3, on court one. Andrew Black and Devon Moskowitz's doubles match went the way of Ted Bagwell and Diego Ladino, 6-3, but UNCG had already secured the doubles point.
