DANVILLE, Va. - After taking an even match into doubles play, the Bridgewater Eagles men's tennis team could only come up with one doubles victory as the team fell to the Averett Cougars in an out-of-conference clash by a 5-4 score.

Bridgewater dropped its first three singles matches to open the day before storming back at number four, five and six to even things up at three apiece heading into doubles action.

At number four singles, Teddy Callow split the first two sets before winning the third set in a 26-game thriller to give the Eagles their first win of the day.

Brent Floyd continued Bridgewater's late resurgence with a 6-0, 6-1 win at number five before Martin Donaire won by the same 6-0, 6-1 score to make things even after singles play.

Averett took the first two doubles matches to seal the victory before the Eagles were winners at number three doubles by an 8-1 score but it wasn't enough as Bridgewater fell by a 5-4 tally.

Bridgewater is back in action tomorrow, March 26, when the team returns to ODAC action with a clash against Hampden-Sydney. Action from Hampden-Sydney is slated for a 3:30 p.m. start time.
