Phil Loprinzi (So.-Rochester, MN/Mayo) won at No. 2 singles, by scores of 6-3, 6-1 over Adam Cohn. At No. 3, Kevin Fawcett (So.-Madison, Wis./Verona) gave up only two points, defeating Matt Chin 6-1, 6-1. Lars Olson (Fr.-De Pere, Wis.) and Erik Brandner (Sr.-Eau Claire, Wis./Memorial) remained undefeated in singles play on the trip, winning 6-3, 6-3 at No. 4 and 7-5, 6-1 at No. 5, respectively. Picking up a 6-2, 6-2 victory at No. 6 was C.J. Rose (Sr.-Lakeville, MN/Apple Valley), defeating Hobart's Jamie Flanigan.

Eau Claire also won all three doubles matches. The No. 1 duo of Lantz and Loprinzi defeated Hobart's Harry King and Charlie Davis 8-2 and the pair of Lars Olson and Fawcett also won by the same score at No. 2 over Cohn and Chin.
