Providence Defeated it’s Cross Town Rival Clarksville

Derek

Providence defeat Clarksville 4 – 1 with Derek Benebig winning his varsity match of his career. The Pioneers shifted their line-up due to the absence of the Clarksville number 1 singles player. This allowed the Pioneers to rest several players before a weekend tournament and match with New Albany tomorrow.

Brenden Popson played first singles and lost 6-3, 7-6 (7-5).

Nolan Carrico played second singles and struggled in the first set winning 6-4, but played a much better second set winning 6-0. Nolan got a slow start and it took him several games to get into his groove, but played well after that.

Derek Benebig played third singles and had a very good match; he struggled a little to finish the match. He was leading 5 - 2 in the second set before dropping two games in a row. He won the match 6-2, 6-4.

Nick Finn and Andrew Jerdonek played first doubles; they played a good first set, but lost some focus in the second set. They won their match 6-2, 6-4.

There was no second doubles played due to Clarksville not having enough players, so Providence won that match.
