Radford Finishes Regular Season with Tenth Victory on Senior Day

RADFORD, Va. – Radford (10-6) finished its regular season with a strong win over Davidson (5-11) Sunday afternoon. The Highlanders also honored Yevhen Sirous and Karl Katlaps before the match as a part of a Senior Day.
 
Radford set the tone in doubles play with strong play on all three courts. Demis Taramonlis and Andres Silva wasted zero time in a 6-1 win on court two while Sirous and Guilherme Severin clinched the point on court one 6-4. William Crane and Karl Katlaps teamed up for the first time this season and came up just short in the tiebreaker on court three 7-6(4).
 
In singles play Taramonlis did not let up off the gas pedal and finished quickly on court two to the tune of a 6-2, 6-1 win. Balsekar extended his win streak to 13 singles matches with his win on straight sets on court six today 6-2, 6-4. Silva was the third straight court to win for Radford and sealed the match clinching 7-5, 6-4.
 
Radford would drop two courts in third-set tiebreakers, but the freshman Severin wrapped up his big week coming back from a first set loss to win court three 4-6, 6-1, 6-4. That marked Severin's 12th win of the season in singles play and was his fifth straight which is the second longest streak on the team.
