ORLANDO, Fla. (March 21, 2015) – The No. 29 Stevens Institute of Technology men's tennis team overcame an early doubles deficit to defeat No. 22 University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, 6-3.
 
The win moved Stevens to 5-4 while Wisconsin-Whitewater fell to 11-5.
 
Sophomores Antonio Perich and Michael Feldman got the Ducks on the board with a decisive 8-0 win at third doubles, but Wisconsin-Whitewater answered with an 8-6 win at No. 2 over junior Ben Foran and freshman Kyle Henry.
 
Junior Matthew Heinrich and freshman Danny Polk fell behind 7-3 at No. 1 before coming back to make it 7-6, but the comeback bid came up short after Wisconsin closed out the 8-6 win to grab the 2-1 advantage.
 
Polk tied things up once singles started with a 6-3, 6-2 win at No. 5 followed by Foran's 6-1, 7-5 win at No. 3. Feldman continued the win streak with a 6-3, 6-3 win at No. 2 before Henry clinched the win with a 6-3, 7-5 win at No. 6.
