LC wasted no time in asserting their will as they swept doubles play, with Peyton Beasley and freshman Kyle Moore (Sharpsburg, Ga.) earning a hard fought 9-7 decision at No. 3 to close out that portion of the match.
From there they would not allow more than two points in any one singles match outside of No. 6. That one would see Beasley pull out a 4-6, 7-6, 7-5 decision over Nolan Owens to close out the 9-0 sweep.
