Matt finished up at the ITA’s 2-2 finishing 7th place. Yesterday Matt started the day with a very rough backdraw match versus Mike Greenberg of Kenyon. Normally one wouldn’t expect to the 2008 NCAA III singles champion in the backdraw but that was Matt’s opponent. As with his previous matches Matt started off smoking! He quickly went up 3-0 and had several break points to take a 4-0 lead. Unfortunately he wasn’t able to convert any of the break points and Greenberg started clawing his way back into the match. Matt served for the 1st set at 5-3 but was broken after a long game. The rest of the 1st set was a battle with Greenberg prevailing 7-6. In the second set Greenberg broke early and held on winning a tight 7-6, 6-4 match.
