BREVARD, N.C. - The Brevard College men's tennis team (6-6) swept all six singles matches to come back and take a 6-1 triumph over Franklin (6-11) on Friday afternoon at the McCoy Tennis Complex. 

With the victory, the Tornados have now won three matches in a row, four of their last five, and six of their last nine. 

The Grizzlies jumped out to the early 1-0 lead in the match thanks to a pair of doubles wins at the number two and three positions. Ayden Montero and Noah Boyles teamed up for a 6-1 triumph at the top spot in doubles action for BC. 

BC would prevail by winning all six singles matches, claiming three in straight sets and three via a tiebreaking third set.

Boyles engaged in a very tight straight-set match in number-two singles against Jaden Wells, winning the first set 7-6 via a 10-8 tiebreaker, and following that up with another 7-6 win in set two that required a 7-3 tiebreak. 

Nathan Booker claimed a 7-5, 6-2 win at the number-three position, and Caelan Byrd clinched number-five singles in a 7-5, 7-6 (7-5) decision.
