Final Stats

New Haven, Conn. - The Navy tennis team dropped its second-straight match to an Ivy League school Sunday, losing a 7-0 decision to Yale in New Haven, Conn. The setback for the Mids come one day after Navy lost a 7-0 match to Brown and drops Navy's record on the year to 5-5.

"We played two very good teams this weekend," said Navy head coach John Officer. "Brown won the Ivy League title last year and is nationally ranked this year, while Yale finished third in the Ivy's last year when they were nationally ranked. We had our hands full."
