  • No. 4 Boris Stastny (Prague, Czech Republic) was toppled by Peter Hatton in matching sets, 6-3, 6-3.
  • SNHU was forced to forfeit Nos. 5 and 6 singles, due to being shorthanded.
  • The Penmen won at No. 1 doubles, with Guy and Torres edging Jarry and Miller, 6-4, but taking a forfeit at No. 3 doubles meant SNHU needed a win at No. 2 to take the point and did not get it. Righi and Hatton set down Vacalares and Statsny, 6-1.
