Men's Tennis Loses to Ashland in Spring Starter

WOOSTER – The spring slate of the 2024-25 season started for John Carroll Men's Tennis on Saturday indoors.

The Blue Streaks headed to the Aspen Racquet Club in Wooster, facing off with Ashland University.

John Carroll dropped a 7-0 decision to the Eagles in the spring opener.

The lone win of the day occurred at the top doubles spot. Dylan Westmeyer and Anthony Markello opened the spring with a nice win at the #1 doubles position, firing up a 6-1 win. 

Griffin Millspaugh and Luis Wentz battled to a narrow defeat at the second doubles spot, 6-4. Phillip Gorun and Jack Sigler experienced defeat at #3 doubles, 6-0. And so, with Ashland winning two of the three matches, the Eagles took the team doubles point. 

Markello worked hard as the team's new #1 singles player. But losing via tiebreaker dropped him to a tough set one loss, and then his foe rolled in the second set. Westmeyer also enjoyed his moments at the #2 spot, but the veteran experienced a 6-2, 7-5 defeat. Gorun dropped a 6-1, 6-2 loss at #3.

Millspaugh lost his opening set at #4, 6-2. The senior forced a tiebreaker in the second set, but ultimately lost that, 7-3, to drop the set, 7-6. Wentz lost at #5 singles, 6-2, 6-1 and Sigler fell at #6 singles, 6-0, 6-1.
