Daugherty Paces Colgate at Binghamton

Sophomore Wins Both Matches, but Raiders Fall at Bearcats Sunday

BINGHAMTON – Jacob Daugherty won both of his matches, but Colgate fell to host Binghamton, 6-1, in collegiate men's tennis action Sunday at the Bearcats Tennis Complex.

Daugherty and Tom Haile teamed up to give the Raiders a 6-4 victory over Sid Hazarika and Ludovico Cestarollo at No. 1 doubles, but the Bearcats won the other matches to take the doubles point and build a 1-0 lead.

In singles play, Daugherty rallied after dropping the first set to record a 6-7 (3), 6-2, 10-5 victory over Hazarika in the top singles flight. Binghamton took the other five singles matches, however, to record the victory.

Bottom Line
Binghamton 6, Colgate 1

Won-Lost Records
- Binghamton improved to 12-7 overall with the victory.
- Colgate moved to 14-6 with the setback.

Colgate Head Coach Bobby Pennington
"Despite the final score, I was very pleased with our match in spots. Credit to (Nick) Laub, (Jacob) Daugherty and (Win) Reynolds for competing and pushing to the limit and going three sets. Binghamton is one of the top teams in the MAC and Northeast for a reason. Credit to (Tom) Haile/Daugherty for winning at No. 1 doubles and improving to 14-3 on the season. Daugherty is now 17-3 in singles, which is incomprehensible at No. 1.

"For the second consecutive season the men finish 14-6 and 4-2 in the Patriot League and a top four seed. We have been looking forward to the tournament for a year and expect big things."

Up Next
- Colgate returns to action in the 2016 Patriot League Championship, which begins April 28 and ends on May 1.
- The Raiders' first-round opponent and match time have yet to be determined by the league.
