Blue Demons go 1-1 in trip to New England

HANOVER, N.H. – DePaul men's tennis earned its first victory of the season in a doubleheader at the Boss Tennis Center on Saturday, splitting the day's matches against Dartmouth and Le Moyne. The Blue Demons (1-3) showed resilience after falling to Dartmouth 7-0 earlier in the day, bouncing back to defeat Le Moyne 5-2 in the evening.

The Blue Demons began the day with an 11 a.m. CT start against the Big Green. Dartmouth jumped out to an early lead, taking the doubles point with victories at No. 2 and No. 3. Quang Vinh Nguyen and Pablo Torres Almeida put up a strong fight in the No. 3 position but ultimately fell, 7-5.

The Big Green carried their momentum into singles, defeating DePaul in straight sets on five of six courts. Torres Almeida pushed his second set to a 7-6(4) finish but couldn't overcome the tiebreaker. Tobias Leitner battled through a third-set thriller at No. 3 but came up short, falling 10-6 in the tiebreaker to close the match 7-0 in favor of Dartmouth.

Matteo Iaquinto and Marko Milosavljevic teamed up at No. 3 to take down Lorenzo Bortolaso and Callum Matthew, 6-4. At No. 2, Thomas Giles and Sven Moser followed suit with a 7-5 victory over Luke Hoyland and Jacob Maravillas, giving DePaul its first point of the season.

In singles, the Blue Demons wasted no time building on their momentum. Moser dominated at No. 6 with a commanding 6-2, 6-0 win, while Milosavljevic earned his first collegiate singles victory with an impressive 6-1, 6-2 performance at No. 4.

Le Moyne responded with wins at the top two singles positions, but Giles clinched the match for DePaul with his first singles victory in a Blue Demon uniform. He came from behind to secure a hard-fought 6-7(3), 6-2, 6-3 win at No. 5.
