JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – To close the 2011 spring season, the FGCU men's tennis team traveled to Jacksonville, Fla. on Saturday for a meeting with No. 73 UNF. The Eagles fell to the Ospreys, 7-0, in the A-Sun dual.

FGCU finished the spring campaign with a 3-18 (1-9 A-Sun) record, while UNF moved to 13-6 (8-1 A-Sun) with four competitions remaining.

Picking up a win in the No.1 doubles match, the FGCU duo of senior Carlo Checchia (Sao Paulo, Brazil/Ceteb/Coastal Carolina University) and junior Matthew Rock (Fort Lauderdale, Fla./Jacksonville University) prevented the sweep of doubles action with a 8-3 victory over the UNF team of Beauregard Treyz and Anton Rabinov. The Ospreys took the remaining two contests to take the opening point.
