Johnson was then the lone winner on the singles side. He took the No. 4 flight 6-0, 6-2.
Drewes and Dewan each took their opponent to three sets in the second and third flights, respectively. Drewes lost 6-3, 1-6, 7-6 (3), while Dewan fell 5-7, 7-5, 6-0.
Connor Streeter also had a fight in the No. 5 flight, falling in three sets 2-6, 7-6 (6), 6-4.
At No. 1, Escobar fell 6-2, 6-3, and at No. 6, Misra fell 6-4, 6-0.
Ohio Northern improves to 3-2, while Wooster drops to 2-4. The Scots start their spring break trip next in Hilton Head Island, S.C., beginning with a match against Shenandoah University.
