WILMINGTON, N.C. – Delaware men's tennis (11-4, 3-1 CAA) was outlasted by CAA foe UNCW (9-5, 1-0 CAA), 4-2 in spring break showdown on Tuesday.

"We came out sharp in doubles and took it to them on all courts," Director of Tennis Pablo Montana said. "We had great momentum going into singles and battled them hard on every court. At the end, we came up short, but I'm really encouraged with how our guys are competing right now. We will learn from this as we get ready to battle Elon on Thursday."

Delaware jumped out to the early 1-0 lead with wins in first and third doubles, however the Seahawks anchored down and clinched the match with four wins in singles competition.

The Hens stay on the road for a road contest against Elon and NC A&T on Thursday.
