The Badgers took the momentum straight into the singles frame, winning three matches to clinch and claim the dual.
Soyfer ended his successful day with another straight-sets win, beating Green Bay's Charlie Croxford, 6-1, 6-2.
Sophomore
Chase Colton and Freimuth finished simultaneously at the No. 4 and 5 spots to finish the day. Colton won over Felix Triebe 6-0, 6-1 while Freimuth beat Miles McDowall 6-1, 6-3.
