Men's tennis beats BU

The MIT men's tennis team is off to a 4­0 start. Last week, the team defeated Boston University 4­3. The Engineers' victory over the Terriers was the first time in five years MIT that topped BU. Last Friday, the Engineers overcame Babson College with a score of 6­1.

Women's tennis at 5­1

The MIT women's tennis team also has started quickly. After an opening match loss to Skidmore College, the women rebounded to a 5­1 record including a 9­0 shutout of rival Worcester Polytechnic Institute on Saturday.

MIT runners Lauren Klatsky '97, and Janis Eisenberg '98 placed first and second in last weekend's Rhode Island College Cross Country Invitational. Klatsky covered the 3.1 mile course in 20:02, with Eisenberg finishing seven seconds later.
