Doubles--Bowditch and Sullivan won 6-2, 6-1; Smith and Mark Woodbury split after 6-6 in the third set; and John Wyide and Walter won 6-3, 6-2.
The team also took four unofficial singles and two unofficial doubles. Christopher Clark, David Moore, Kalman Pollan, and John Roosevelt won the singles. Clark--Moore and Adelman--Pollen teamed to carry the unofficial doubles.
