SANTA BARBARA, Calif.— In the last day of the UCSB Classic, the Saint Mary’s men’s tennis team nearly pulled away with two more victories in doubles action.
The Gaels tandem of Matthew Campana and Manuel De Luis Lamales was in a tight match against a pair from Cal. Battling back-and-forth with precise groundstrokes and tough play at the net, Campana and Lamales were eventually edged, 8-6 in the consolation match.
In the consolation final for the C Flight doubles, Jacob Lagman and Brian Lee also suffered a close defeat to cross bay rivals, Paul Giraud and Woravin Kumthonkittikul of USF.
