Lee then made the rest of the match academic with his win over Goldstein. That neutralized most of the forthcoming sting of No. 2 Doran's 7-6, 6-2 loss to Steve Burke. The loss snapped Doran's 13-game personal winning streak.
"The streak had to go sometime," Mandeau said. "The first set went to a tiebreaker, and sometimes you just run into a player better than you on a particular day."
Any lingering regret caused by Doran's loss was erased by Passarella's 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 win at No. 4 over Scott Carlton. Passarella had been struggling earlier in the year, losing six matches in a row at one point.
The win, combined with a three-set victory against Phil Cheung of Brown, gives him six straight wins, and his game appears back on track in time for the NCAA tournament.
"[Passarella] looks much stronger now," Mandeau said. "He's recovered his feel for the ball and timing of his hits. He had stumbled a little early on."
Green swept Greg Royce in the final match.
Friday's 7-0 win against Brown surprised no one. In the 64 times these schools have competed through the ages, the Bears have emerged victorious only once.
