Razorbacks Fall in Doubles Final

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – The duo of juniors Adrien Burdet and Melvin Manuel came up short in the doubles final at the ITF 15K Fayetteville Futures on Saturday.

The doubles final featured the Razorback duo against, Alessio Basile of Oklahoma State and American Cooper Williams. The Arkansas pair got off to a hot start, staying right with their opponents tied 4-4, but dropped the next two games and fell behind 4-6. In the second set, the Hogs couldn’t get their offense going while their opponents took the title and win with a 6-3 second set.
