DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Embry-Riddle men's tennis kicked off new season this weekend, hosting the 2025 ERAU Open at the Crotty Tennis Complex in Daytona Beach.

The Eagles opened the 2025-26 season, collecting solid results in a three-day slate of matches that featured in-state competition in Sunshine State Conference foe Eckerd, NAIA opposition Southeastern, and NJCAA's Eastern Florida State.

Unfortunately, action was stalled several times throughout the weekend due to pop-up storms and rain. Several of the matches were left abandoned or unfinished due to the weather.

In doubles action, Joao Morgado and Joshua Nuyts led the way with an unbeaten run, earning three victories highlighted by a 6-2 win over Southeastern's Gonzalo Fernandez Ornia and Pedro De La Riva Bueno and a 6-1 decision against Eckerd's Valdemar Spillemose Andersen and Oskar Ekjord.

Both Manuel Lanteri and Mason Cisco took part in a 3-0 weekend in doubles play. The duo teamed up on Friday for a 6-4 win over opposition from Eastern Florida State. Lanteri then teamed up with Safar Rasulov, posting two more wins. Cisco then combined for a pair of dubs with Charles Leguillon.

ERAU was equally sharp in singles, led by Nuyts, who went undefeated with wins over Eastern Florida State's Pablo Garcia (6-3, 6-2) and Southeastern's Fernandez Ornia (7-5, 6-3). Enrico Rosellini delivered two strong victories, including a 6-3, 6-1 win over EFSC's Fernando Martinez Belinchon and a 6-2, 7-5 decision against Southeastern's Javier Gallego Murcia.

Marc Mail battled to a pair of victories, highlighted by a 3-6, 6-2, 10-6 comeback against Southeastern's Piero Fernandez, while Morgado downed EFSC's Filip Sormaz and Eckerd's Batu Ataseven in straight sets.

Embry-Riddle will take the next couple of weeks to prepare for the ITA South Regional tournament which takes place on Oct. 2-5 in Pensacola, Fla.
