...good deal of depth in the middle of their six-man singles ladder, but Harvard matches up well in both categories. The Crimson racquetmen have two factors on their side going into the match--momentum from a 5-4 early April win over another ACC team, Virginia, and the fact that Maryland tennis players have a history of squandering their talent...
