STOCKTON, Calif. – A solid showing by Maciek Romanowicz and the No. 43 Stanford Men's Tennis team led the Cardinal to its third consecutive win Wednesday afternoon with a 4-1 win over No. 68 Pacific.
The Cardinal (8-6, 0-0 Pac-12) cranked past the Tigers in doubles action with Nolan Paige and David Wilczynski taking a 6-2 win at the No. 2 spot before Tom Fawcett and Maciek Romanowicz claimed the point with a 6-3 win at No. 1.
Pacific (10-8, 2-0 WCC) was able to scrap a point in singles in the No. 3 spot, but the Cardinal overpowered them easily with David Wilczynski and Michael Genender taking straight-set wins at Nos. 2 and 4. Romanowicz added his 10th career match-clinching point with a 6-2, 6-4 win over Kumara Adavelly at the No. 6 position to end it.
The Cardinal travels to Tucson next, where it will open Pac-12 play facing Arizona Friday. Match time is set for 1:30 p.m. PT.
