Final Stats

ANNAPOLIS, Md. - Members of the Navy tennis team concluded play at the Cornell Fall Indoor Invitational Saturday with a pair of players losing in tiebreakers.

"This was a challenging weekend for our guys as they were 'playing up' in almost every match," said Navy assistant coach John Moreland.

The lone Mid of the three entered into the event to win an opening round singles match Friday was Jarrad Smoke (So., Belmar, N.J.), who posted a 6-3, 6-0 victory over Colgate's Tyler Deck. However, Smoke would go on to fall by an identical score to Cornell's Andy Gauthier in the second round.

Alex James (Sr., Visalia, Calif.) and Ramsey Lemaich (So., Danville, Calif.) both dropped opening round singles matches in straight sets before losing in the back draw of the tournament in tiebreakers. James dropped a 9-8 (7-5) decision to John Nogueras of Colgate, while Lemaich lost a 9-8 (7-2) decision to Binghamton's Moshe Levy.

"Alex and Ramsey both fought back after being down a break of serve to force the tiebreaker, so even though we were disappointed with the losses I am happy with the way they rallied back in their matches," said Moreland.

Additionally, James and Lemaich lost their lone 'A' flight doubles match to Army's duo of Sean Harris and Eddie Kang by the score of 8-5.

This now concludes the fall season for the Navy tennis team.
