NEWARK, NJ—The NJIT men's tennis team won its second straight match with a convincing 6-1 victory over visiting Sacred Heart Sunday morning at The Naimoli Family Athletic and Recreational Facility.

NJIT (2-2) registered a tight 4-3 victory over Fairleigh Dickinson on Saturday and followed up with a 6-1 win over the Pioneers (0-4) on Sunday for a 2-0 record on the weekend.

"Another good doubles outing as we swept all three matches," head coach Ira Miller commented after the match. "Everyone was very solid in singles, never letting Sacred Heart into any of the matches."

NJIT picked up where they left off Sunday morning, as Highlander pair George Svensson and Lukas Zvikas combined for a 6-2 victory at second doubles.

Abdullah Fouad and Aleksa Petrovic secured a 6-2 win at the third spot while Highlander duo Tomi Antoljak and Zac Castagna were 7-5 winners at first doubles.

Zvikas recorded the first victory in singles action, combining for a straight set win, 6-2, 6-2 at the third spot.

NJIT captain Castagna notched an identical score victory, 6-2, 6-2 at the fourth spot to go up 3-0.

Antoljak made it 4-0 with a straight victory at first singles, 6-4, 6-3.

Fouad battled out the only three-set tilt of the match at second singles, dropping the first frame, 6-4, but bounced back with a identical score victory, 6-3, 6-3 to earn the point.

The lone Pioneer point came at the sixth spot.

Petrovic played a tight match at fifth singles, coming out on top, 7-5, 7-6 (6).
