ELON, N.C. – The fifth-seeded Drexel men's tennis team dropped its CAA Championships semifinals match Saturday afternoon to the first-seeded William & Mary Tribe, 4-0, at the Jimmy Powell Tennis Center. William & Mary advances to the CAA finals on Sunday with the win.

The Dragons finish out the 2017-18 campaign with a 14-7 (2-1 CAA) record, beating the single-season program mark for victories.

The Tribe jumped out to the doubles point, taking the second and third spots, in that order, each by a score of 6-3. In singles, it was more of the same for William & Mary. Bernard Tefel fell to Sebastian Quiros, 6-3, 6-0, at No. 5 followed by Sanil Jagtiani's 6-2, 6-2 loss to Finbar Talcott at No. 4 and Youssef Lahlou's 6-3, 6-2 defeat at No. 6.
