Freshman wins Cardinal draw

Freshman Logon Collins claimed the “Cardinal” draw title at the Ball State Invitational this past weekend to lead the Golden Eagles, while fellow freshman Dan Mamalat and senior Jose Manuel Munoz reached the semis in their respective divisions.

Collins rallied from being down a set and defeated Butler’s Stephen McGloughlin 5-7, 7-5, 1-0(7) in the finals. That marks the freshman’s first tournament victory.

Mamalat defeated three opponents en route to the semifinals in the “Flight A” draw. He fell in two sets (7-6(4); 6-1) to Xavier’s Bobby Deye in the semis.

In the “White” draw, Munoz defeated Matt Ford and Alex Doherty before falling to Xavier’s Mesa Mei in two sets.

Also of note, junior Otavio Perim reached the semifinals of the consolation bracket after losing in the opening round of the “Flight A” draw.

In doubles action, Perim and freshman Thibault Troude bested two tandems before falling to Ball State in the semifinals of the “Flight A” doubles draw. In “Flight B,” Collins and Munoz also made it to the semifinals before being bounced out.
