In a Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) matchup today between host Nichols College and the visiting Fighting Scots of Gordon, the top-seeded Bison blanked their guests, 9-0, to improve to a perfect 5-0 in conference. The loss drops the Scots to 2-3 in CCC play.

Gordon makes the short trip to Endicott College on Tuesday, April 16 for another CCC head-to-head starting at 3:30 p.m., while the Bison take a break from league action to host Lesley College on Monday, April 15 at 5 p.m.

How It Happened

• Determined to maintain their No. 1 status, the Bison started the day hot and never looked back, ceding just one game in doubles play to sweep the Scots and carry a 3-0 lead into singles action.
• With the momentum of their doubles wins behind them, the Bison kept their feet on the gas to cruise to straight-set wins in each singles matchup.
• The Scots' Nathan Lookwhy gave his opponent a run for his money at No.1 singles, dropping the first set, 6-1, to Blake Norton (Sr./Stratford, Conn.) and forcing but eventually losing a tie-breaker in the second to secure for Nichols the clean sweep.
