At No. 1 doubles, the duo of Mike Halperin and Stefan Paulovic defeated Barker and Turner, 8-5. Lee and Riddell equalized the match with an 8-5 win over Pat Hagan and Russ Gimelstob in the No. 2 slot. Rounding out the doubles action, Dalibor and Choo coasted past Zach Gallin and Mike Mestel 8-4.
The singles portion of the overall match was unusually quick, as all six contests were decided in two games. The first victor of the day in singles was Riddell, who posted a 6-2, 6-1 win over Mestel at No. 6 Barker finished subsequently, adding another Harvard tally in the win column, by sweeping Julian Cheng 6-0, 6-2 in the No. 5 position.
Up 3-0 in the match, the Crimson needed only one more singles win to lock up its first Ivy victory. Cornell, however, made the Crimson put in some extra work for the win.
Big Red No. 3 Gallin swept Choo 6-2, 6-2 and No. 1 Halperin edged Nguyen 7-6, 7-5 to pull Cornell within one game at 3-2. Despite the tenacious comeback, though, Lee finished off the Big Red with his 6-0, 6-4 win over Chris Lewis at No. 2.
Crimson freshman Turner wrapped up the action by besting Paulovic 6-4, 6-4 in the No. 4 position.
