Newcomer Marcus Robinson made a splash in his debut before falling to Ben Epstein 3-6, 2-6. The two did combine for their first doubles win of the season over the same two players, 8-3. However, the Hawks lost the doubles point as Buwaneka Galpothawela and Harold Fowler fell at #2 doubles and William Nitrenganya and Andrew Graham fell at #3 doubles. The Hawks now head to the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) Round-up in Altamonte Springs, Fla, march 22-25.
