Wenham, Mass. – The Endicott men’s tennis team took five of six singles matches en route to a 7-2 win over The Commonwealth Coast Conference (TCCC) and north shore-rival Gordon on Saturday afternoon. 

Devon Locke (St. Croix, Virgin Islands), Zach Arpey (Saratoga Springs, N.Y.), and Porter Williams (Raleigh, N.C.) were all dual winners on the day as the Gulls improve to 2-3 overall and 2-0 in conference play. Gordon stalls at 4-4, 1-1.

Locke and Arpey, the reigining TCCC rookie of the week, cruised to an 8-1 win at number one doubles while Williams and teammate Jake Cohen (Barrington, R.I.) matched the effort to give the visitors a 2-1 lead heading into singles play. 

The Blue and Green took all five singles in matches in straight sets. Tyler Hovey-Wildman’s (Concord, N.H.) hard fought loss at number six singles was decided in three sets (6-2, 2-6, 10-8).

Olivier Joggi (Stoneham, Mass.) cruised to a 6-2, 6-1 win at the number three spot while Evan Ross dominated at number five (6-3, 6-1).
