Staten Island, NY - The Wagner College men's tennis team put together perhaps its most complete performance of the season, cruising to 7-0 shutout win over Staten Island (CSI) on Sunday evening.

For the Seahawks, it marked the first win for head coach Felipe Fuentes.

The Green & White got the evening started with a dominant showing in doubles, as the pairing of Tejasvi Mehra and Hans Ohrner closed out an 8-1 win over Nikolozi Davlianidze and Mark Karpovas at second doubles. The duo of Siddharth Anand and Mohammed Hussain bested Tao Lin and Ivi Selencia, 8-2, to clinch the doubles point and send Wagner into singles with a 1-0 lead.

The Seahawks' momentum did not sway, as Anand defeated Davlianidze, 6-1; 6-0, at fifth singles, followed by newcomer Abhinav Magow shutting out Matthew Kotlyar in straight sets at sixth singles. Omar Loutfy got past Karpovas, 6-2; 6-0, at fourth singles for Wagner's fourth straight win to seal the overall victory.
