Well we had one quarterfinal that was devoid of drama, and one quarterfinal that was overflowing with it. As expected, Middlebury took care of Bates without any issue, as the Panthers blanked the Bobcats. Like Midd, Wesleyan started off their match with a doubles sweep, but then things got hairy. Amherst had five first sets,…
Happy NESCACs, boys and girls! Yes, it’s that time of year again as another season as sprints to a close. The spring season in the northeast always seems to be just that, a sprint. Blink and it’s gone! Luckily we have one more weekend before NCAAs so you all will get plenty of new articles…
After coming off an effort for the Perfect Week, things got away from me a bit. I was so drained from the effort that I was not able to get an article out on Tuesday, meaning that pushed back some Pool C and Bracketology. In an effort to make this up to the loyal readers,…
Today’s theme for Power Rankings is quite obvious, and I figured I’d keep it light in what is a hectic week of May. I was just down in Orlando getting some BOBA Mimosas, which really hyped the group chat up this morning, so I’m feeling slightly sassy. I’m just keeping it fun out here. Here’s…

Every year, I try and do something a little extra special for both of these tournaments as well as an extra Studs and Duds Recap that everyone loves to pore…

Happy Saturday, boys and girls. With the day’s matches finishing up, it’s time to look ahead to Sunday’s matchups and check out the scenarios.
