Men's Tennis Wins ECAC Opener Over Brown
February 13, 2016 | Men's Tennis
For the second straight year, the Princeton men's tennis team won its ECAC Championship opener, this time sweeping Brown 4-0 to set up a semifinal match against Penn Saturday at 3 p.m.
Harvard and Cornell won on the other side of the bracket, and the Tigers will face one of those teams Sunday.
Princeton rallied to win the doubles point after dropping a match on court one, and the momentum kept going into singles play. Kial Kaiser, Luke Gamble and Diego Vives won their singles matches to clinch the point, sending Princeton into the semis on the Quakers' home court.

Coach Billy Pate on the match: "It was a great team effort today against a very solid and spirited Brown squad. It was a tight doubles point, but I like how we secured the point at No. 2 and 3 and then got better as the match went on in singles. We'll need to maintain this focus and level of play as Penn had a great win over Dartmouth on their home courts." |
