Yellowjackets Top St. Lawrence, 6-1

The University of Rochester men's tennis wrapped up its weekend with a 6-1 win over the St. Lawrence University Saints on Sunday afternoon inside the Goergen Athletic Center. With the win, Rochester moves to 3-3 on the season, while the Saints drop to 2-2 with the loss.
 
Led by a pair of double-winners in Josh Chu and Aiden Swartz, the Yellowjackets dropped just two matches against the Saints, winning the doubles point and the first five matches of singles play before St. Lawrence got on the scoreboard late.
 
Chu and Swartz got Rochester started with a 6-2 win at No. 2 doubles over Willem Naughton and Charles Schepens, while Surya Rajamani and Liam Rieger combined to clinch the doubles point with a 6-3 victory at No. 3 doubles over SLU's Bennett Stout and Ryan Tingley.
 
St. Lawrence's Jake David and Josh David took the first doubles match, 7-6 (7-2), over Rahul Ravi and Ethan Samora before singles play got started.
 
Swartz gave URochester its first win in singles action and cemented his double-winner status with a 6-2, 6-3 win at No. 4 singles over Schepens, while Ravi bounced back from a doubles defeat and first-game loss to top Jake David at No. 2 singles, 1-6, 6-1, 6-1.
 
Tony Xu picked up the Yellowjackets' next win and clinched the match with a 7-5, 6-2 win over Armaan Walia at No. 3 singles, while Andy Liu won a third-set tiebreak over Josh David, 3-6, 6-2, 11-9, at No. 1 singles to finish off a first-round sweep by the 'Jackets.
 
Up 4-0, Chu made it 5-0 with his second win of the day, a 6-4, 6-2 victory over Stout at No. 5 singles, while the Saints would wrap things up with Ryan Tingley's 6-1, 6-2  win over Leo Umansky at No. 6 singles to make the final score 6-1 in favor of the Yellowjackets.
 
Rochester will wrap up its three-game homestretch on Saturday, Feb. 28, with a matchup against Hamilton College beginning at 10:00 a.m.
