Lancers Finish Strong in Final Road Match

The Lancers traveled to the College of DuPage for their final road match of the season, with both teams closely positioned in the seedings—making every match crucial.

After a delayed start due to rain, the #1 doubles team of Marshawn Gallego and Seth Lampkin set the tone with a strong 8–2 victory. The Lancers followed up with two more doubles wins at #2 from Anthony Shultis and Vinny Marino, and at #3 from Nathan Popov and Pablo Galan.

In singles play, Lampkin, Shultis, and Marino each cruised to convincing victories. At #3 singles, Popov staged an impressive comeback, rallying from a 1–3 deficit to win 11 straight games and secure a 6–3, 6–0 win. Galan, stepping in at #5 singles, battled hard but fell just short in a tight tiebreaker, 9–11.

The #1 singles match proved to be a marathon, with Gallego grinding out a hard-fought win, 7–6 (13–11), 7–6 (7–1).

The Lancers will next face Elgin Community College at Lakes High School at noon.
