Bucknell at a Glance

Bucknell is looking to bounce back from a couple of losses to quality teams in Army and No. 68 Cornell last weekend. The Army match was tight throughout, with the Black Knights pulling out a couple of three-setters at the bottom of the lineup in the 4-2 final.
Harrison Gold at No. 1 and Tim Zelikovsky at No. 4 were victorious against Army, and Nick Mueller at No. 2 was even in the third set when the match was clinched.
Zelikovsky bounced back nicely after missing the four Spring Break matches in Florida. The singles win over Army's Thomas Lake was his seventh in a row. Zelikovsky led Cornell's Sam Paquette 6-5 in the first set when the Big Red clinched that decision, so Zelikovsky will take that winning streak into Sunday's match at Howard.
Zelikovsky is now a team-best 14-7 overall and 8-4 in duals in singles. He is 7-1 since moving to the No. 4 spot in the lineup, with his last loss coming all the way back on Feb. 6 at Drexel.
Zelikovsky also has a winning record in doubles, going 10-8 overall and 6-5 in duals. He is 5-3 when paired with Gold at No. 1 doubles, and Gold is 8-4 overall playing with Zelikovsky and Charlie Nordahl.
