JACKSON – Freshman Campbell Hughes won all three of his matches to improve to 4-1 overall in his spring 2008 debut and Millsaps knocked off regional foes Louisiana College and Huntingdon College by 9-0 scores before falling to Birmingham-Southern to win 2 of 3 matches in its weekend home opener at Coach Montgomery Courts.

In the opening match against Louisiana College on Friday at 1 p.m., Millsaps swept all three doubles points by large margins to take an early 3-0 lead, followed by six-straight sweeps at the singles spots to win handily, 9-0.

The Majors didn't drop a set in the win, using wins from Trevor Harris, Robert Parker and Chris Kelley at the No's 4, 5 and 6 slots to blow the match wide open.

Hughes followed with a straight-set victory over Ford, 6-1, 6-0, and Murphey Parker and Wes Hill had little trouble with Tanzin and Walton at the No's 1 and 3 spots.

Millsaps kept the momentum going in the nightcap and spoiled the Hawks' unblemished record, defeating Huntingdon with 8-0 wins at No's 2 and 3 doubles to cruise to the victory.

Junior Tim Shoptaugh skunked Zach Molin at No. 4 singles, 6-0, 6-0, to push the Majors' lead out to 4-0 early before freshman Alex Cummings dropped K. Hazan 6-1, 6-2, at No. 2 singles to wrap up the win.

For a second-straight match, Millsaps did not drop a set in improving to 3-1 overall.

BSC proved too much for the Majors to close the weekend on Saturday night, winning 7-2 with several close matches at No. 2 doubles and singles.

Down 2-0 early with losses at No. 1 and 3, Hill and M. Parker battled Martin Crockett/Matt Mabry to an 8-6 match at No. 2 to complete the doubles sweep for the Panthers.

Ranked 15th regionally, Michael Locandro had no trouble with M. Parker at the No. 1 position, winning handily 6-0, 6-0, while Hughes and Shoptaugh were the lone Majors who picked up wins at No. 3 and 4 singles.

Millsaps will continue an 8-game homestand on Sunday, playing host to SCAC-foe Sewanee at 9 a.m. at Coach Montgomery Courts.
