LAWRENCEVILLE, New Jersey – The Quinnipiac men's tennis team continued its strong performance on the court Sunday afternoon to pick up its second straight victory with a 7-0 win over the Rider Broncs.
The Bobcats (2-0, 1-0) earned their first MAAC win of the season with the win over the Broncs (1-6, 1-2) who fell after winning their first match of the season on Saturday against Siena.
Sophomore Julian Rozenstein (Marlboro, New Jersey) picked up his 50th career victory and 30th career singles win with a victory today for the Bobcats. Kei Ezaka (Ojai, California) also reached a career milestone as she won his 80th career match today, with 41 wins coming in singles and 39 in doubles.
Overall, five different Quinnipiac men's tennis players won two matches on Sunday afternoon.
Action started off with doubles as the Bobcats swept the doubles point with all three matches. Willem van Biezen (Warmond, The Netherlands) and Ryoma Haraguchi (New York, New York) played together in a match for just the second time in their careers and came up with a strong 6-1 victory to finish first at No. 3 doubles over Adam Levi and Ryan Ciaccio. Ezaka and Kyle Alper (Diix Hills, New York) played together for the straight day and clinched the doubles point for the Bobcats, defeating Brandon Gildea and Jeremy Van Herwarde, 6-3.
