Luke Figora won at #5 singles..
LAKE FOREST, IL - The Forester men's tennis team hosted Macalester College Friday (March 29th) at the Racquet Club of Lake Forest. The match, which Macalester won 6-1, was originally scheduled to be played at the Lake Forest High School West Campus but rain earlier in the day forced the teams indoors.

At number five singles, sophomore Luke Figora (Yorkville, IL/Yorkville) got the victory in his first match of the season. After winning the first set 7-6 (8-6), he fell in the second, 6-3. A tie-breaker was used to settle the match, and Figora came out on top, 10-7.

While Figora recorded the only Forester victory of the match, senior Evan Hall (Norwich, VT/Loomis Chaffee School) and junior Andrew Schuman (San Francisco, CA/Lawrence Academy) came extremely close, falling 9-8 (8-6) at number three doubles.

Lake Forest (0-4) is scheduled to host the Milwaukee School of Engineering in its next match on Thursday (April 4th). The Foresters will then travel to Appleton, Wisconsin, to take on Lawrence University and to De Pere, Wisconsin, to play St. Norbert College next Saturday (April 6th).
