The Colonels were able to find one bright spot in the singles matches that commenced afterwards, Bulow taking down his opponent on a dominant 6-3, 6-3 final line. Although resulting in losses, two other series for the Gold and White went into tiebreakers, the first being Gazzo in the No. 2 slot. That series finished in a 7-5, 3-6, 8-10 score. Ashton Whitt was able to make a comeback and force a third set against his opponent in the No. 4 series, that one ending in a 5-7, 6-4, 6-10 score.
