The Bearcats (4-5, 0-0 America East Conference) are coming off two losses at Ivy League schools: a 6-1 loss to #46 Columbia, and a 7-0 sweep at the hands of #24 Cornell.
They will be led by sophomore Robin Lesage, who is 5-4 in the top singles flight. Binghamton’s top doubles team is senior Bastian Bomkessel and sophomore Ismael Dinia, who are 2-5 together in the top doubles flight.
