#7 Men’s Tennis Blanks Grace on Home Opener

History Links INDIANAPOLIS — The No. 7 Indianapolis University men’s tennis team showed dominance in their home opener against the Grace Lancers, sweeping all nine matches.

THE INS AND OUTS
Zeuch Destouet’s magic kicked in at the start of the doubles as in just 15 minutes of action defending national champions ITA DII had secured a 6-0 victory, giving up just two points in the match. For Nikolaj Talimaa and Jason Gerweck, the tides were equally calm as the pair sailed to a 6-1 victory. New faces Erwan Andre Momo and Louis Picaud faced some opposition but eventually found the W.

The singles was quick and simple to say the least, Tom Zeuch made it a perfect day, scoring his second clean sweep of the day, winning 6-0, 6-0 in second place. Edgar Destouet, much like his partner in crime, showed very little conflict en route to a 6-2, 6-2 straight sets win in the top tier. From then on, the Greyhounds played a role with Talimaa, Picaud and Momo all winning their matches. A new face on the schedule in August Ehrnrooth made his Hounds debut, impressing with a dazzling 6-1, 6-1 win.
