WASHINGTON, DC - The Georgetown men's tennis team hosted their second home match of the 2004-2005 season as the Richmond Spiders visited the McDonough Tennis Complex. Richmond, the reigning Atlantic 10 Conference Champion and a 2004 NCAA Team Championship qualifier, scored a 5-2 win.
Georgetown began the match with a solid doubles performance as the #2 and #3 doubles teams posted victories. Andrew Clayton (Salt Lake City, UT/Rowland Hall- St. Mark's) and Scott Maucher (Mount Pleasant, NC/Bishop England) claimed the #3 doubles match by an 8-4 score and the sophomore tandem of Kevin Killeavy (Indian Harbor Beach, FL/Melbourne Central Catholic) and Scott Faust (Miami, FL/Ransom Everglades) came through at #2 doubles with a 9-7 win. It was only the second time in the last twelve matches that Richmond was defeated in doubles.
But Richmond, despite Georgetown's 1-0 lead, responded as though no deficit existed, winning the first sets in all six singles matches. Georgetown was able to extend only one of those matches to a third set as Maucher came through with a 4-6, 6-4,7-5 win at #2 singles. The final score was Georgetown-2, Richmond-5
Georgetown returns to the road for BIG EAST matches against Connecticut in Vernon, CT on Saturday, April 2, and Boston College at BC's Chestnut Hill campus on Sunday, April 3.
