NEW ORLEANS — Xavier University of Louisiana's Karan Salwan defeated Daniel Merker of Southern Miss 6-2, 6-2 Saturday in the men's flight 1 championship match of the Big Easy Tennis Classic at the University of New Orleans.
Salwan, a junior in his first semester at Xavier, won a singles championship for the second time in three fall tournaments. He was the A-flight singles and doubles winner at the HBCU National Championships in September.
