Sophomore Noah Biser (Wake Forest, N.C. / Wake Forest) rebounded from a 6-3 setback in set one of his clash at the number-two spot to best the opposition 6-2, 6-1 and secure victory.
 
After the Presidents picked up a straight-set triumph at the number three spot, freshman Michael Pohuski (Westminster, Md. / Westminster) bounced back from a heart-breaking 7-5 loss in set one at fourth singles to even the contest with a 6-3 victory. His opponent fired back to take set three (6-4) and the match.
 
W&J won at number five and number six singles, with the latter going 6-3, 6-7, 6-3, despite the best efforts of junior Zachary Johnson (Raceland, Ky. / Saint Joseph Central Catholic).
