Coming off a long day in Cambridge, MA playing MIT, the Mules started strong at 3rd doubles, with Sam Henry and Max Schuermann winning 8-2 in quick fashion. At the 1st and 2nd positions, the Mules played Brandeis close but ultimately fell to go behind 1-2 after doubles. 

In the singles, highlights included Jake Cohen's second consecutive singles win, defeating his opponent 6-3. 6-2 at the 3rd position.

"I think we are moving in the right direction, and with every match we are getting better and better," said Cohen. "I loved the competitiveness shown by the whole team this weekend and excited for spring break next week."
