Orlando, Fla. - The University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) Men's Tennis team finished up a disappointing trip to the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) Round-Up by dropping two matches on the final two days of the event to North Carolina A & T (NCAT) and Norfolk State, both by scores of 7-0. In the match with the Aggies UMES played well, getting great outings from Kishan Sudusinghe and Christopher Clarke. Sudusinghe fell 6-3, 6-2 playing the #1 spot to NCAT's Porter Myrick. Clarke fell 6-2, 6-3 in the # 2 spot to Jeremy Martin. In doubles action the same pair of Hawks took on Londell Hartfield and Brandon Evans and were downed 8-4. The following day the Hawks were looking to get in the win column with their final match of the event. It wasn't to be as UMES got good outings but were upended by the Spartans. Sudusinghe fell 6-0, 6-1, Clarke was defeated 6-1, 6-2, Kapila Pilimatalauwe fell in the #4 spot 6-1, 6-0 and William Ntirerigamya fell at #6, 8-2. In doubles action Sudusinghe and Clarke lost to Vassil Zahariev and Miroslav Vlcek 8-3. The Hawk men lost all five matches in the MEAC Round-Up and fall to 0-5 on the season. UMES takes on Salisbury University on March 1, 2006 in a battle of the two Eastern Shore universities.
