The New York University men's tennis team took on The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) at the Stadium Tennis Center in the Bronx, NY, on Saturday, March 15, and defeated the Lions 7-0 for their fifth-straight win.
 
The Violets set the tone early by winning two of three doubles matches to secure the doubles point. Jingyuan Chen and Bryan Hui dominated at No. 2 doubles, winning 6-1. Zachary Freier and Alex Lee followed with a strong performance at No. 3, earning a 6-3 victory.  
 
In singles play, NYU swept all six matches with commanding performances. Boren Zheng led the way at No. 1 singles, winning 7-5, 6-3. Philip Martin at No. 2 took his match 6-4, 6-0, while Chen was equally dominant at No. 3 with a 6-1, 6-1 victory.
 
Hui followed with a 6-1, 6-3 win at No. 4 singles, while Louis Frowein put together a strong performance, winning 6-4, 6-3 at No. 5 singles. Ryan Shayani battled through a close match at No. 6, pulling out a 7-6, 10-6 victory to complete the sweep.
 
"It was a good win for the men as The College of New Jersey has historically given us problems," said Head Coach Horace Choy. "There were some close matches, but we managed to pull them all out. I'm happy that the team did not look past today's opponent ahead of our UAA match-up tomorrow," 
 
The Violets, now 5-1, will return to action tomorrow when they face Brandeis University at the Stadium Tennis Center in the Bronx. First serves are set for 12:00 PM.
