Cummins made quick work of his No. 2 counterpart (6-0, 6-4) before junior Darren Dahl (Westlake Village, CA) sealed the match victory with a 6-3, 6-4 win at No. 4.

Against Mary Washington, the Bulldogs swept the doubles to take an early 3-0 lead. Nanda and Leahy as well as the top team of senior Mark Bloom (San Juan Capistrano, CA) and freshman Patrick Lipscomb (Irvine, CA) put together 8-3 wins for the Maroon and Gray.

In singles, Lipscomb cruised to an efficient 6-4, 6-1 showing for Redlands' fourth point of the match. After a minor setback at the No. 3 position, the Bulldogs secured the match victory with Nanda's solid 6-1, 6-3 triumph at No. 5.
