Both Ryan Kim, at No. 4, and Ilya Trubov, at No. 6, won matches that featured tiebeaks to put the 64th-ranked Tigers in control. Kim earned a 7-6, 6-2 victory over Renzo Maggi, while Trubov defeated Aris Andreasian by scores of 6-3 and 7-6.
The Tigers (8-4) clinched the match at No. 1 singles, where Peter Capkovic went to a third set with Jacek Twarowski and defeated Twarowski 7-5 in that decisive set.
