Speaking of 4-3 that was the final score of the CUI men's match against Biola.  

The game was paused Tuesday evening due to darkness with both teams having already claimed 3 points. Adam Kartzinel was leading 4-1 in third set when both teams agreed to resume the next morning.

Bright and early on Wednesday, Kartzinel cemented the victory with a gutty effort, rising to a 6-2 win in that critical third set for the clinching point of the match.

Back on Tuesday afternoon, the CUI men had won the double point and then also gotten points with Felix Veyhle at the No. 2 spot (6-2, 6-3) and also via Adam Large at the No. 3 position. Large won in three sets with a very strong finish by a count of 4-6, 6-1, 6-3.

CUI improved its record to 6-1 with its lone defeat coming against nationally ranked APU by a narrow 4-3 margin.
