EFSC’s Titans Take Howard in a Tennis Victory Parade
On a Sunday morning that felt like a B‑night fireworks show, the Eastern Florida State College men’s tennis squad hit the court and stormed the scoreboard, handing Howard University a quick 6‑1 loss. Coming off a three‑game win streak, the Titans—ranked No. 2 in the ITA Junior College listings—lined up a smashing performance that left the visitors in stitches and the crowd cheering.
Doubles Showdown: “They’re the Warriors, Not the Dinosaurs”

- Johan Mottlau & Konstantin Kukaras made the second set a nail‑biter, pulling off a 7‑5 win that had us all holding our breath.
- Pablo Garcia Rodriguez & Tomas Kurz Cardozo wrapped up the third in a breezy 6‑2 victory, showing the crowd that teamwork is everything.
Singles: One‑Match Wonder and the Tiebreak Fiasco
In singles, the Titans dropped a thunderbolt of talent:
- Alexandr Achour knocked out No. 1 with a clean 7‑5, 6‑2 victory—he seemed to have a cheat code.
- Alberto Perez put on a show in three sets: 6‑3, 7‑6(4) on the path to a 6‑3 win that was a roller coaster of emotions.
- Salva Mulet triumphed at No. 3 in straight sets, 7‑6, 6‑3—no drama, just dominance.
- Pablo Garcia Rodriguez powered through No. 4 with a 6‑4, 6‑0 sweep—no competition, just fireworks.
- Tomas Kurz Cardozo left the No. 5 side in awe with a 6‑2, 6‑1 triumph.
- At No. 6, Johan Mottlau faced a tiebreak and, after a dramatic 10‑6 finish, had to admit defeat: “It’s not over yet!” he claimed.
Next Stop: A Tuesday Homecoming Game
The Titans will head back to their home court this Friday, ready to hit the road and host the University of Findlay in a 9:30 a.m. showdown that promises to be as fierce as their last match.
EFSC Sparks a Heart‑break Match at Howard
Picture this: the sun shone, the Titan Tennis Center buzzed, and the Eastern Florida State College women’s squad went head‑to‑head against Howard University. Spoiler alert – the home girls took a 7‑0 swing, dropping their season record to a rookie 1‑2.
It Was a Rough Day
- Laura Yans & Elena Martinez Prado pushed Howard back 7‑5 before the final tug‑of‑war slipped away.
- Thais Mitlmeier & Maria Gento had a close battle but ultimately lost 6‑4.
- Leticia Orlandov & Nayara Alvarez Martin stuck to Form 3 doubles and were out at the end, 7‑0.
Howard didn’t just shine in doubles—single‑player feeling was the real showstopper. They captured all six singles matches, each one a clean “straight‑sets” win. The feed‑lot of talent simply demolished the EFSC lineup, leaving the East‑coast squad with a bitter sweet lesson.
Next Up: Saturday’s Redemption Quest
EFSC is heading back home to muster a comeback against Northern Kentucky. The game kicks off at 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday, March 12. Hope the team can bring the heat, rally the morale, and step away from the sting of Howard’s shut‑out victory!
