In doubles action, the men's top pairing of Ben Leibig (Lebanon, Pa. / Lebanon) and Evgeny Matigullin (New Bloomfield, Pa. / Susquenita) had everyone on their feet as they finished off Goucher's number one team 8-4 with a strong performance.  Penn State Harrisburg' number two team of Vinnie Lepore (Chepachet, R.I. / Ponaganset) and Zachry Warriner (Montrose, Pa. / Montrose) finished with a win of 8-5.  The Lions third group of David Pottle (York, Pa. / Central York) and Vishnu Gopalakrishnan (Ashburn, Va. / Briar Woods) easily took down their opposition 8-1 to give the blue and white an early lead heading into singles action.
