Men's Tennis Falls To No. 13 Harvard

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.– The No. 42 University of Pennsylvania men's tennis team's eight-match win streak and unbeaten start to Ivy League play ended Sunday afternoon in a 5-0 defeat at the hands of No. 13 Harvard in a battle between the final two teams without a loss in conference action.

Edoardo Graziani and Kevin Zhu won their doubles match at #1, but the Crimson took the second and third-flight matches to take the early point.

The Crimson quickly clinched the match with three straight-set wins in singles play. Of the three remaining matches at time of the clinching, two matches were halted, while the #1 match between Graziani and Henry von der Schulenberg, each ranked in the top 65 of the ITA Singles Rankings, was played to a finish.

The Quakers wrap the regular season next weekend with a home match Friday against Columbia and a road match Sunday against Columbia.
