PRINCETON, N.J. – Harvard men's tennis sent four student-athletes to Princeton this weekend to compete at the Ivy League Qualifier Tournament.

On day one, Nathan Blokhin recorded the sole singles win of the day. The Harvard sophomore defeated Adrian Treacy in three sets, 6-2, 3-6, 6-1. The following day, Blokhin was tripped up by Callum Markowitz, this time narrowly falling in three sets.

In doubles, Blokhin and Kolos Kincses went on a strong run. The pair opened the tournament with an 8-6 win over Treacy and Denny Bao (Dartmouth).

The following day, the duo defeated Andrew Kotzen and Shaan Patel (Columbia) in a tiebreaker. After the back-and-forth match reached 7-7, the Crimson pulled out the win with a 7-5 tiebreaker win.

Blokhin and Kincses then dominated the draw's four-seed, 8-2, in the semifinals. The Harvard team's run ultimately came to an end in the finals.
