April 14, 2025 | Men's Tennis

WEST POINT, NY - Army West Point men's tennis (12-7, 4-3 Patriot League) fell to the Navy Midshipmen (22-14, 8-0 Patriot League) 4-0 before collecting a 4-1 win over Wagner (5-14, 1-4 NEC) on senior day from Lichtenberg Tennis Center.

In the contest with Navy as part of Army-Navy Star Series presented by USAA, the Black Knights were unable to get on the board in singles after dropping a tightly-contested doubles point.

Returning on Sunday for senior day against Wagner, firsties Vishnu Bodavula & Michael Zhang were recognized in a pregame ceremony. In storybook fashion, it was Bodavula and Zhang on court two in doubles who won a tiebreak to clinch the doubles point for the Black Knights. Preston Achter and Davis McDonald had logged a 6-2 win on court three.

Matías Feoli made quick work on court five to begin singles, tabbing a (6-2, 6-0) win to put Army ahead 2-0. Zhang continued his senior day run with a (7-6, 6-1) win on court six with Alan Ton then clinching the match on court one after dropping the first set (2-6, 6-4, 6-1).
