Harvard rebounded in the singles matches, however. Victories by sophomores Andrew Rueb and Umesha Wallooppillai and freshman Tod Meringoff pushed the score to 3-1, Harvard, but junior Marshall Burroughs lost to bring Princeton within one.
Again, the Crimson lost the doubles point, but not without a fight. With the doubles' score even at one, Stovell and Burroughs fell behind in the third set but broke their Mountaineer opponents' serve twice to force a tiebreaker.
Harvard's collective blood pressure went up when Burroughs lost his singles match and Harvard went down, 2-0.
"I played in a daze the second set," Burroughs said of his match, "but then I regrouped and played a solid third set."
"We try to ignore past results and take each match as it comes," Burroughs said. "And we have our toughest road trip of the season coming up this weekend."
