The Eagles (13-2) closed out the conference slate with a 5-0 record, extending their unbeaten streak in conference play to five straight seasons.

The Embry-Riddle men experimented with a new line-up as two new doubles pairings took the court, along with a new trio in the top half of the line-up.

Sean de la Bastide and Zander Woodford-Smith, another first-time pairing, topped Kyle Mahlan and Andres Palaceus 8-1 to complete the ERAU doubles sweep.

The Eagles dropped only one game in singles play as five of the six ERAU singles players earned shutouts. Woodford-Smith was the first to notch a win, downing Mahlan 6-0, 6-0 at No. 3. Francis, Rice and Bolgar each registered shutouts at the fourth, fifth and sixth positions, respectively with Francis scoring the clincher.

Monday was a day of career firsts for Perez who registered his first dual match shutout in his first appearance at the top spot, besting Lopez 6-0, 6-0.
