Junior Robert Foy was the only victorious Mustang as Cal Poly was dominated by Stanford in Palo Alto yesterday.
Foy defeated Ted Kelly 6-4, 3-6, 10-7 at No. 6 singles to prevent the Cardinal (13-4) from a sweep of the day’s matches.
The Mustangs (6-9) were able to keep the doubles matches competitive as Foy and his partner senior Darryn Young fell to Bradley Klahn and Ryan Thacher 8-5 at No. 1 doubles while the 34th ranked team of Blake Muller and Richard Wire defeated senior Andrew Gerst and sophomore Alexander Sonesson 8-6 at No. 2 doubles. Freshman Andre Dome and Foy dropped a close 9-7 decision against Gregory Hirshman and Kelly.
The only other Cal Poly player to take a set was Sonesson at No. 4 singles as he fell to Muller 5-7, 6-4, 10-8.
The Mustangs, who are in the midst of three duals in three-consecutive days, play this afternoon at UC Santa Barbara.
