CLEVELAND -- Chris Adams must have thought he had a case of déjà vu.

Less than 24 hours earlier, he found himself in the same position on the same court. Last match on. Third-set tiebreaker. The Cardinals' fortunes on his racquet.

And just like he had done Saturday evening to clinch a big comeback victory, the Ball State senior came through.

After fighting off two match points in the breaker, Adams earned one of his own and capitalized. The senior sent Cleveland State's Clark Bilinovich chasing a well-placed lob, closed in on the net and emphatically slammed away an overhead for the win.
