HAVERFORD, Pa. – The Haverford College men's tennis team welcomed back 18 alumni to take part in the team's annual Alumni Match this past Saturday.
The Alumni came into the match riding a five-year winning streak. However, that five-year run came to an end with a 15-9 victory by the varsity team. The evening came to a close with Jacob Youse receiving the prestigious MacIntosh Award on the 50th anniversary of that honor on campus. Ron Norris, who played both singles and doubles in the Alumni Match, was also in attendance as the team's first MacIntosh Award recipient along with many previous winners.
