...opened up 2009 with a convincing 8-1 victory on the road Friday over No. 6 Stanford (2-6). The win sets up a battle of unbeatens with No. 3 Trinity at the Barnaby Courts next week. The Crimson won all of its matches except at the top flight, where sophomore June Tiong was forced to retire in the second game.
