NORTH HAVEN Conn.- The St. John's men's tennis team orchestrated a strong performance in a convincing win over Quinnipiac, 6-1, on Saturday night.
The win over the Bobcats in North Haven, Conn. marked the fifth time in the last six years the Red Storm have begun its season with a victory.

In doubles competition, the Red Storm grabbed the point by claiming victory the first two matches. Garcia and Giuseppe De Camelis beat Kemal Karagazoglu and Javier Casasolas Monilla 6-3, 6-3. Charlie James and Kaneda handedly defeated Magalit and Bryan Shick, 6-1, 6-1.
