FLUSHING, N.Y. – The Yeshiva University men's tennis team earned a convincing Skyline victory over St. Joseph's College Brooklyn, 9-0, at the USTA National Tennis Center on Wednesday evening. The Maccabees remain unbeaten in Skyline play, advancing to 5-0 in league matches (10-6 overall), and extend their conference winning streak to 35. The Bears fall to 1-5 overall and 0-3 in the Skyline.

Yeshiva won all three doubles flight by scores of 8-1. Juniors Lior Brik and Alexander Kalb won the first flight, first-year players Samuel Edery and Meir Melamed won the second position, and senior Adam Bandler and sophomore Jonathan Kestenbaum teamed up to win the third flight.

Melamed won six out of eight games in the first set, and was victorious in every game in the second, at No. 3 singles. Bandler did not drop a single game in the fourth flight, while sophomore Dylan Ohayon was victorious at No. 5 singles, 6-1, 6-3. Kestenbaum won both sets at No. 6 singles, 6-0.
