ABILENE – Abilene Christian played without two of its regular players but toughed out a 7-0 win over Trinity on Saturday.
ACU won the doubles point with Dario Kmet and Jose Maria Rastrojo winning at No. 2 and Mihaly and Merse Deli winning at No. 3. Ethan Scribner and Benjamin McDonald were tied at 4-4 when the match was suspended.
Dario Kmet got a quick win at No. 1 singles and Merse Deli won 7-5, 7-5 at No. 3 for the 3-0 lead. Mihaly Deli clinched the match with a 6-4, 4-6, 6-2 win at No. 2
McDonald and Martin Delindo got straight-set wins at Nos. 4 and 6, respectively, and Dennis Dutine won a marathon at No. 5, 6-2, 6-7 (7-9), 10-7.
"There were a lot of good matches for all of our guys," said ACU Head Coach Juan Nunez. "That's why it's so fun to bring TJC (Friday) and Trinity in. We've done that for years now and it's so good because they push you and compete. They put us in situations where you can tell our guys are under pressure. Our guys responded well."
The Wildcats return to action next week in Corpus Christi at the HEB Invitational.
