The UC Men endured a myriad of obstacles on Wednesday afternoon, none providing more trouble than Tiffin College, who presented quite a tough challenge for the Golden Eagles. The match was scheduled to start at 8 AM, but rain delayed the start of the match until 11:45. The teams were then forced to relocate during the last two singles matches due to prior court reservations.
 
Tiffin was able to capture two out of the three possible points in the opening doubles matches. Charleston's second doubles team of Matt Sherba and Davey Nelson fell in a close match 8-6 while Jake Lorenz and Gabe Seymour were corralled 8-3. The lone doubles point for Charleston was secured by Dennis Okoth and James Gammell at first doubles, winning 8-3.
 
Charleston was able to dig deep in singles, however, mounting an impressive comeback to win the match by winning four out of six singles matches. Matt Sherba ground out a clutch victory at first singles 6-4, 6-4 and James Gammell eviscerated his opponent at second singles to win 6-1, 6-1. Tiffin responded by taking the next singles position against Dennis Okoth 6-3, 6-2. Nick Bakos secured Charleston's 4^th point at the five singles position after jumping out to a big lead in each set, but held on after a furious rally in each set to win 6-4, 6-4. Charleston almost secured the match at fourth singles as Jake Lorenz was able to come back from a set down to force a third set super tiebreaker, but eventually fell 6-4, 4-6, 10-3.
 
That left the match tied at 4-4 with the sixth singles position winner determining the outcome. Davey Nelson was able to mount a comeback after losing the first set 6-2 to win the second set 6-3 and force a super tiebreaker. In the tiebreaker, Nelson was able to grind out a tight 10-8 victory to secure the match for Charleston. Nelson was upbeat following the victory, "It was a tough match, I knew that I didn't play well in that first set and he forced me into a lot of mistakes, but I knew I could take my game to another level and if I could play more consistently and keep to the game plan that I had a good chance to come back. My teammates were great, they were behind me the whole time and helped me keep my head in the match, I couldn't have done it without their support."
 
The win extends Charleston's current winning streak to two, and after a Thursday off, the men will be back to play Erskine on Friday afternoon as they wrap up matches on Hilton Head Island for the week.
