New York, NY - After earning an automatic berth to the 2015 NCAA Men's Tennis Tournament field, the Hawks will face the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the first round as announced by the NCAA earlier this afternoon. The two teams will square off
on Friday, May 8 at 2pm. Hunter is the only team out of the CUNYAC to qualify for the field.
The NCAA appearance is the first for the Hawks since 2011. Ironically, they were pitted against MIT four years ago in Middlebury, Vermont in the first round when they fell by a score of 5-1. Hunter (10-3, 6-1 CUNYAC), was crowned the CUNYAC Champions after defeating Baruch College 5-1, earning their automatic bid. MIT (15-4) won the NEWMAC Tournament over Babson College, 5-4 to punch their ticket into the Tournament.
