Nick Cavaday and Jay Weinacker fought to the last point, but when it was over the Wolfpack duo fell in the NCAA Doubles Championship to end the season. The senior Cavaday, who was competing in the doubles tournament for the second straight season, saw his career come to a close with the loss in Tulsa, Okla.

Cavaday and Weinacker won the opening set 6-3 to take the early lead, but couldn't hang on against Andy Connelly and Ross Cunningham of Tulsa. The Tulsa tandem rallied to win the second set in a tiebreaker, 7-6 (5), before closing out the match with a 6-3 third-set win.
