Pirates Complete Texas Sweep With 5-1 Win Over ACU

The Pirates picked up three singles wins to close out a 5-1 win over Abilene Christian, giving AASU a sweep of two schools from the great state of Texas in Round of 16 action in Houston. Freshman Rafael Array defeated Brian Joiner, 6-3, 6-0, at No. 4 singles for the first singles point, then junior Paul Bishop followed with a 6-1, 6-3 win over Luke Hawk at No. 3 singles. Senior Davor Zink clinched the match at No. 6 singles with a 6-2, 6-1 win over Brett Proctor - with his father watching from the bleachers, making the trip to watch him play his final matches as a Pirate.

Tomorrow brings Lynn University in a quarterfinal match, meaning AASU moves on to try and sweep the state of Florida in two matches. We also move back to Memorial Park where we -hope- to have more stable internet access!
