The Blugolds' No. 1 player Tim Eisele (Jr.-Apple Valley, MN) lost a three-set match to Hamline senior Andy Carlson with the third set decided in a tiebreaker. The senior-dominated Hamline lineup also picked up a victory at No. 2 singles as Jon Breimhorst notched a 6-4, 6-3 triumph over Steve Lantz (So.-Rochester, MN/Century). Junior Erik Brandner (Eau Claire/Memorial) came back from a first-set loss to win his No. 4 singles match for the Blugolds with 7-6, 7-6 decisions in the second and third sets. He pushed his season record to 13-7. Aaron Nordenskjold (Sr.-Red Wing, MN) upped his season mark to 11-6 with a straight set win at No. 3 singles. Junior Brett Gressick (De Pere) improved his season record at No. 5 singles to a team-best 19-4 with straight set wins. Freshman Phil Loprinzi (Fr.-Rochester, MN/Mayo) also claimed straight set wins at No. 6 singles to improve his season mark to 7-5. In doubles, the duo of Brandner and senior Jeff Peterson (Edina, MN) gained an 8-2 triumph at No. 3 doubles to increase its season record to 8-2 as well. Eisele and Lantz combined for an 8-5 triumph at No. 1 doubles and are now 7-5 on the year. Nordenskjold and Loprinzi picked up an 8-4 win at No. 2 and stand 8-4 for the season.
