Honestly can’t tell which team is Columbia.

Take a break from stressing about housing with this week’s sports recap.

Baseball: The Lions went 2-1 again this weekend against Harvard. After an 11-6 loss on Saturday morning, the Light Blue went into the afternoon game ready to prove themselves. Junior Joe Engel hit a single to the pitcher to score the Lions’ first run in the bottom of the first, but otherwise Harvard kept Columbia scoreless until the bottom of the third when Randell Kanemaru opened the inning with a home run. Columbia dominated after that, defeating the Crimson 7-1. Sunday’s game was closer, but still a 9-6 victory for the Lions. Kanemaru and teammate Liam McGill currently lead the Ivy league in slugging percentage.

Women’s Tennis: Columbia beat Cornell 6-1 on Saturday. The Lions took two of the three doubles matches (the third was unfinished), and all but one of the singles matches. Although first year Sarah Rahman dropped her match 6-4, 6-4, in the middle of the day’s match, Columbia didn’t let Cornell win another match. This is a marked improvement from last year, when Cornell beat Columbia 7-0 and went on to tie for the Ivy title.

Men’s Tennis: The Blue and White defeated Buffalo 7-0 on Friday to improve their record to 11-3 overall, with conference play starting next week. Columbia went 2-1 in the doubles matches thanks to a close victory from sophomore Adam Ambrozy and senior Michal Rolski. The singles victories included a 6-0, 6-4 win from sophomore Jackie Tang, currently ranked 44th in the nation.

Women’s Golf: lost to Princeton, beat Penn in Match Madness Tournament
Men’s Lightweight Rowing: beat Princeton by 1.1 seconds
Men’s Heavyweight Rowing: came in second out of four teams in Alumni Cup (lost to Dartmouth by six seconds)
