Navy's
Alexander Orr (Jr / Haverford, Pa.) and
Ramsay Killinger (So / Wyndmoor, Pa.) paired up to go undefeated and win the 2025 U.S. Intercollegiate Doubles Championship Sunday at the Germantown Cricket Club in Philadelphia. It's the seventh doubles championship won by the Mids and their first since 2019.
Orr and Killinger were sensational throughout the weekend, scoring a pair of 3-0 wins while outlasting teammates
Wenqing Tang (Fr / Villanova, Pa.) and
Michael Tierney Jr. (Fr / Berwyn, Pa.) in a five-game marathon match to open the tournament. It was Orr's second doubles appearance, while Killinger made his debut en route to the pair etching their names into the record books.
While Orr and Killinger concluded the tournament with a 4-0 record, there was a three-way tie for second. Officials used games won to break the tie, as Tang and Tierney Jr. placed second (9 gms won), followed by Drexel's Charlie Taylor and Thiago Cabrejos (7 gms won) and
Avinash Uppuluri (Fr / Short Hills, N.J.) and
Hudson Poirier (Fr / Wellesley, Mass.) in fourth (6 gms won). Penn's Roger Alber Baddour and Abdelrahman Dweek defaulted.
Navy has now won seven (2013 - Andrew McGuinness & Hunter Beck / 2025 -
Alexander Orr &
Ramsay Killinger) doubles titles, including five in a row between 2015 and 2019 (2015 - Bill Kacergis & Senen Ubina / 2016 - Randy Beck & Jack Herold / 2017 Jack Herold and Senen Ubina / 2018 Michael Kacergis & Senen Ubina / 2019 Jack Lentz & Michael Kacergis).
