Bulls Dominant in Senior Day Win Over UCF

TAMPA, FLA. (April 3, 2016) – On a beautiful day under clear blue skies, the University of South Florida men's tennis team defeated rival UCF, 4-0, on senior day Sunday afternoon at the USF Varsity Tennis Courts.

Seniors Roberto Cid (Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic), Dominic Cotrone (Bradenton, Fla.), Ignacio Gonzalez-Muniz (Gijon Asturas, Spain) and Everth Dzib (Yucatan State, Mexico) were all honored with special framed pictures between doubles and singles play in their last home match as a Bull.

The No. 17 Bulls (14-8) came out ready to play right from the start. Seniors Cid and Gonzalez-Muniz lead the way in doubles with a decisive 6-4 win on court three. Juniors Sasha Gozun (Orhei, Moldova) and Vadym Kalyuzhnyy (Donetsk, Ukraine) looked sharp as they also came out with a 6-4 win in the premiere doubles position.

In his last home singles match as a Bull, No. 5 Cid did not disappoint as he finished his opponent off quickly 6-0, 6-0. The win moves Cid to an impressive 17-2 in the premiere singles position this season.

Dzib would also pick up a win on senior day as he took a 6-2, 6-0 win on court six for USF. The victory was secured by sophomore Peter Bertran (Santiago, Dominican Republic) on court four as he defeated his opponent 6-1, 6-1. With the win, Bertran ranks tied for second on the team with 11 singles wins on the season.
