In a Wednesday matinee matchup just a few hours’ drive down Interstate 95, the Owls fell short in a 4-2 loss to George Washington University in Washington D.C.
“They’re always one of the stronger teams in the country,” coach Steve Mauro said. “It was a good match that didn’t go our way, on a different day I think we might’ve been able to get the win.”
Once again, the Owls’ doubles teams came up big. Temple’s second pair, sophomore Uladzmir Dorash and freshman Francisco Bohorquez, won its match 6-4 and the third pair, junior Thomas Sevel and sophomore Florian Mayer, won 7-6(2).
