Junior Austin Allen prevailed in the White Singles Flight of the Elon Fall Invitational and was named champion after winning the championship match with a 6-1 final in both sets to bring home a program win for East Carolina University’s men’s tennis team.
“When it came to playing in the finals, I was not too exhausted,” Allen said. “Our coaches have pushed us hard in practice and in the weight room to get us into great shape, they have also instilled trying to compete our hardest for every point regardless of the score, I didn’t look at the finals different so I was able to go out and execute my game plan.
