TULSA, Okla. - Two Duke men's tennis players were eliminated at the D'Novo/ITA All-American Championships in Tulsa, Okla. on Friday.
Freshman Henrique Cunha saw his run through the tournament come to an end with a tough loss to Tulsa's Ashley Watling. The first set went to a tiebreaker with Watling edging out Cunha 7-6 (4). The momentum from the tiebreaker carried to the next set for Watling as he went on to close out the match with a 6-1 win. The loss was just the second of the season for Cunha, who had won eight straight singles contests.
Junior Reid Carleton, who is ranked No. 29 nationally, faced a top 25 opponent for his third straight match. Carleton and No. 20 Boris Conkic fought to a tiebreaker in the first set with Conkic coming out on top 7-6 (5). The second set was also close but Conkic took the match with a 6-4 victory to advance.
Carleton and Cunha will be in action on Saturday in the doubles backdraw. The duo will face Virginia's Drew Courtney and Lee Singer.
All matches are taking place at the Michael D. Case Tennis Center on the campus of the University of Tulsa.
