BOX SCORE

DURHAM, N.C. — The North Carolina Central University men's tennis team was credited with a forfeit win in singles play to account for its lone point in a 5-1 road loss to 20th-ranked Duke University on Sunday evening in the Sheffield Indoor Tennis Center.
 
Sophomore Brooks Campbell was awarded the forfeit win for the Eagles at No. 5 singles. The victory does not go on his individual record because a point was not played.
 
The Blue Devils, who knocked off University of Kentucky by a 4-1 margin earlier Sunday, only had four active players ready to compete in singles play in the NCCU dual match.
 
The four Duke individuals that saw action against the Eagles all won in straight sets.
 
Sophomore No. 1 Nick Stachowiak defeated junior Gabriel Cucalon (6-0, 6-2); junior No. 2 Ryan Dickerson edged sophomore Theofanis Kontopoulos in the tightest match (7-5, 7-5); sophomore No. 3 Robert Levine prevailed over junior Sebastian Bromley (6-2, 6-0); and junior No. 4 Jason Lapidus topped sophomore Pablo Juez Torres (6-0, 6-2).
 
With NCCU forfeiting the third doubles bout, the Blue Devils only needed a 6-0 win by Dickerson and Lapidus over Kontopoulos and Juez Torres on the second court to secure the tandem team point.
 
Duke improved to 6-2 on the season.
 
NCCU (0-3) returns to action at East Carolina University in a rescheduled dual match for Sunday, Feb. 18 at Noon.
