The Bruins (2-4) claimed No. 2 doubles and forced a tiebreaker at the top doubles spot, but the host Commodores (6-2) held on to clinch the doubles point before sweeping all six singles matches.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nThe duo of sophomore <a href=\"https:\/\/belmontbruins.com\/sports\/mens-tennis\/roster\/charlie-robin\/4686\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"4686\" target=\"_blank\">Charlie Robin<\/a> and graduate <a href=\"https:\/\/belmontbruins.com\/sports\/mens-tennis\/roster\/will-ecklund\/4691\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"4691\" target=\"_blank\">Will Ecklund<\/a> defeated Vanderbilt&#8217;s second tandem of Hugo Coquelin and Nathan Cox 6-3. However, it would be one of only three sets Belmont would win across both singles and doubles at the Lummis Family Tennis Center.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nAfter a 6-1 loss at No. 3 doubles, the Bruins&#8217; top doubles pair of senior <a href=\"https:\/\/belmontbruins.com\/sports\/mens-tennis\/roster\/sabi-roi\/4687\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"4687\" target=\"_blank\">Sabi Roi<\/a> and junior <a href=\"https:\/\/belmontbruins.com\/sports\/mens-tennis\/roster\/stefan-vedovelli\/4689\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"4689\" target=\"_blank\">Stefan Vedovelli<\/a> went to a tiebreaker with the Commodores&#8217; Hoyoung Roh and Pablo Martinez Gomez. Roi and Vedovelli were unable to find a break in the tiebreak, though, and fell 7-4.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nIn singles action, both Robin and freshman <a href=\"https:\/\/belmontbruins.com\/sports\/mens-tennis\/roster\/austin-yack\/4692\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"4692\" target=\"_blank\">Austin Yack<\/a> won sets.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nAt No. 2 singles, Robin recovered from a 6-0 first set loss to Cox with a 6-3 second set win. However, Robin was defeated 6-3 in the deciding third set.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nOn court five, Yack gutted out an 8-6 opening set breaker against Vanderbilt&#8217;s Donghyun Hwang before falling in the second set, 6-2. In the 10-point super tiebreaker in lieu of the third set, it was Hwang who prevailed, 10-6.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nBelmont won no more than five combined games in any of the other four singles matches.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nUp Next<br \/>\nThe Bruins remain on the road and head down to Oxford, Mississippi, Sunday to take on another SEC opponent in Ole Miss. First serve from the William F. Galtney Indoor Tennis Center is scheduled for 1 p.m. Next Friday, Feb. 20, Belmont hosts East Tennessee State University at the Ensworth Tennis Center.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nHow to Follow<br \/>\nFollow Belmont men&#8217;s tennis on social media \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BelmontMTennis\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@BelmontMTennis<\/a>\u00a0on X, formerly Twitter, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/belmontmtennis\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@belmontmtennis<\/a>\u00a0on Instagram \u2013 for complete coverage of the Bruins.
