Liberty’s boys’ tennis team added to its winning record with victories over Easton (7-0), Allentown Central Catholic (6-1), and Bethlehem Catholic (7-0) last week.

In the biggest comeback of the Hurricanes’ match at Becahi, Liberty’s Jesse Claudio and Milind Jagota defeated David Napierkowski and Andrew Kaeser 7-5, 3-6, 7-6.

“I’m exhausted but very proud,” Claudio said. “I’m glad Milind kept his head up and went with our momentum.”

After dropping the second set and trailing 0-5 in the third, Liberty’s assistant coach, Dawn Benner, gave the pair a pep talk, encouraging them to fight like heck because it can be done.

“We kept our energy high in the tiebreak and turned it around,” said Jagota.

Between Claudio’s overheads and Jagota’s net play, the Hurricanes scored the victory.

“Aggressive or not, at the net sets the pace and tone of the match,” Jagota said. “It’s the intimidation factor.”

Duke Jin and Gavin Snyder won at three doubles 6-0, 6-3, and Colin Bokan and Marc Burritt won at four doubles 6-4, 6-1.

In singles play, Dann Lynn won at number one 6-1, 6-0, Luke Conrad at number two 6-2, 6-0, and Jacob Berg at number three 7-5, 6-2.

In the Hurricanes’ match against the Red Rovers, Lynn won at number one singles 7-5, 6-3, Conrad won at two singles 6-2, 6-2, and Berg won at three singles 6-0, 7-5.

“It was a pretty streaky match,” said Lynn. “I won three in a row, and then he won three in a row. There wasn’t much back and forth. In the second set, I think I just upped my game a little bit.”

Bokan and Milo Foell teamed up at number one doubles to win 8-0.

At number two doubles, Claudio and Jagota won their match 6-3, 7-5.

“I kind of tightened up in the second set and was making a lot of errors,” said Jagota. “If you lose a second set, the third is always rough, so I kind of just went back to basics.”

For Claudio, it was about the volleys.

“When I hit it wider, I got more volleys, and net is playing a bigger part this year,” he said.

Mike Noble and Jin won their match 6-4, 6-0 at three doubles, and Snyder and Burritt won 6-1, 6-0 at four doubles.

Lynn’s 6-2, 6-2 victory in the Central match was a challenge.

“He was really consistent, and I had to work for all the points I won,” Lynn said. “It was a long match.”

Conrad lost 2-6, 5-7 at two singles, but Berg won 6-0, 6-1 at three singles.

Foell and Jacob Wong won 8-7 at number one doubles, and Claudio and Jagota had a 6-2, 7-5 victory at two doubles.

“When Jesse got all his serves in at the end of the second set, we were able to close,” said Jagota.

Snyder and Jin won 6-2, 6-1 at three doubles, and Bolin and Burritt won 6-1, 7-6 at four doubles.
