ALBION, Mich. – Josh McGarry continued his winning ways in singles on Wednesday.
The Albion College senior from Macomb, Mich., defeated Blake Trusty 6-1, 7-5 for his fourth win in a row and his sixth in the last seven matches. He is 9-5 in singles this season.
McGarry and Robert Joerg scored the singles points for the Britons, but they were unable to carry the team to a victory over Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association rival Trine University. Trine walked off the courts outside of the Dow Recreation and Wellness Center with a 6-3 victory over the Britons.
Playing a 10-point game to decide the No. 3 match since the team result had been decided, Joerg defeated Jaxon Davis 3-6, 6-4, 10-3.
McGarry and Nick Kinachtchouk produced Albion's point in doubles when they defeated Blake Trusty and Evan Trusty, 8-4.
Albion (5-6 overall and 0-2 against MIAA rivals) will visit the Minges Creek Athletic Center or Harper Creek High School for a Friday MIAA match against Olivet College.
