CLEVELAND, Ohio - The Vikings won the doubles point and three singles matches to defeat Duquesne on Friday evening. The win pushes CSU to 5-2 on the season.

Sophomore Phil Orno led the team with a 6-4, 6-2 win over Alex Mast at No. 1 singles. Senior Brad Groleski defeated Mark Macuich 6-2, 7-6 (3) at No. 5 singles and freshman Chris Klepatz clinched the team win with a 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 win over Zach Skorupka at No. 3 singles.
