Hawks Drop Scots 8-1 In CCC Matchup

Match Results

In a Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) matchup today between Gordon and visiting Roger Williams University at the Brigham Athletic Complex, the Hawks soared to an 8-1 win over the Scots to improve to 6-1 in conference play. The loss keeps the Scots winless in CCC action (0-7).

Mike Muthersbaugh (Sr./Troy, N.Y.) picked up the Scots' lone win of the day, dueling the Hawks' Jason Pacino (Jr./North Reading, Mass.) to a three-set (3-6, 6-3, 1-0 (10-7)) win at No. 4 singles.

The Scots found themselves at a heavy deficit after Roger Williams swept through doubles play for the early 3-0 advantage. Then, in solo action, Gary Gaudio (Sr./Miller Place, N.Y.) and Jeff DeNuzio (Sr./Barrington, R.I.) duked it out at the top flight with DeNuzio eventually edging the win with a 7-6, 7-5 result. Similarly, Kenny Gaudio (So./Miller Place, N.Y.) and Zack Bussiere (Fr./Colchester, Conn.) had a heated three-set battle at No. 2 until Bussiere finally took the win 2-6, 6-1, 1-0 (10-5). The remaining singles matches belonged in straight-sets to the Hawks, however, as Ryan Swanson (Fr./West Newbury, Mass.), Taylor Webster (So./Bristol, Conn.), and Jonathan Chandler (Jr./East Falmouth, Mass.) cruised through their respective matchups at No. 3, No. 5, and No. 6 to secure the win.

The Scots travel to Southern Maine on Monday, April 23 for a non-conference match set for 3:30p.m., while the Hawks host the CCC's Wentworth on Wednesday, April 25 at 4:00p.m.
