Men's Tennis Finishes Ninth at ECACs
|
The men’s tennis team met expectations this weekend at the ECAC Men’s Tennis Invitational. It just didn’t exceed them. Ninth-seeded Cornell came in exactly the place it was supposed to: ninth. The Red fell to Dartmouth on Friday, but prevailed against St. Joseph’s on Saturday and Boston College on Sunday.
“It would have been nice to do a little better,” said coach Barry Schoonmaker. “But at least we didn’t go down.”
The team went into the weekend feeling good about its chances, but was disappointed after falling eight-seeded Dartmouth on the first day of play, 5-2.
