\nTennessee fell short in the doubles category after losing sets on courts one and three. Neither duo was able to take control, with Chattanooga’s Jaxon Lamb and Carter Ramthun besting Dragos Cazacu<\/a> and Piotr Siekanowicz<\/a>, 6-1. The tandem of Alejandro Moreno<\/a> and Boruch Skierkier<\/a>\u00a0gained momentum on court three, but it eventually lost the doubles point, 6-3, to the Mocs’ Jakub Jupa and Cortland Grove.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After doubles play, the competition was moved indoors for singles due to inclement weather. UT bounced back early on with Jan Kobierski<\/a> defeating Cortland Grove, 6-4, 6-1, and Ethan Muza<\/a> besting Kristof Kincses, 6-1, 6-3. Moreno later gained another point for the Vols over Jupa, 6-4, 6-4. Moreno is now two singles wins from 70 in his career.
