Junior Alex Jaulin (Australia) led the way as he made the "B" flight singles finals. He won his first three matches in straight sets, beating to Augustana Vikings, before falling to Marco Romano of Washburn in three sets; 5-7, 6-4, 10-4). Next, sophomore Jip Mens (Netherlands) made the "A" flight singles quarters with four others recording a singles victory. Finally, three Loper doubles teams recorded a win.
