10/24/2004

 

 

St. Bonaventure senior Mario Arce (pictured) advanced to the round of 16 today at the ITA Regionals.  Arce, seeded 6th in the event, defeated David Webb of Dartmouth 6-4, 7-5 in the morning.  In the afternoon, Arce saw his hopes for the Regional title fade as he dropped a heartbreaking 4-6, 6-2, 6-3 decision to Harvard's Martin Wetzel. It is the second straight year Arce has made the round of 16 at this tournament and lost to a player from Harvard. 

"I had many chances to win the match but he was also playing well. I am disappointed but he played pretty well." said Arce.

LOOKING AHEAD

This concludes the Bonnies fall season.  The Bonnies now will start their off-season strength and conditioning program and get ready for the spring season where the ultimate goal for the Bonnies will be regaining the Atlantic 10 crown.
