CANTON, OHIO - Wayne State traveled to the Hall of Fame Fitness Center for a double-header match against two future GLIAC opponents Friday and swept both matches 9-0. The Warriors (2-1) earned their first and second wins of the season against Walsh University and Malone University, respectively.

At the fifth singles spot, Oscar Gamarra (Guayaquil, Ecuador / Unidad Educativa Javier) rallied from being down 5-1 in the second set to win 7-5 over C. J. Kugler. Thomas Ducret (Paris, France) won at second singles in an exciting 7-5, 6-3 match against Mark Innes.

In the afternoon, the Warriors hit to a 9-0 win over the Pioneers (0-4). Head Coach Bryan Morrow changed up the line-up to see some different combinations early on in the season. Melvin Joseph (Northville, Mich.)  teamed up with Chen at the number one doubles position. They defeated Malone's Nate Davis and Joss Celuch 8-1. Chen won his match at fourth singles in straight sets (6-0, 6-0) over Andrew Rearick.
