The 10th-ranked Stanford men's tennis team defeated Sacramento State 7-0 Tuesday at Taube Family Tennis Stadium in the season opener for both teams.

Stanford captured the doubles point to take a 1-0 lead before sweeping all six singles matches. Three Cardinal freshmen picked up victories in their first career dual match at the Nos. 3-5 positions of the lineup.

John Morrissey cruised to a 6-1, 6-3 victory on court one. Morrissey is Stanford's lone nationally ranked singles player, at No. 39.

After Robert Stineman secured a 6-3, 6-1 win at the No. 6 spot, Nolan Paige provided the clincher with a 6-3, 6-1 triumph at No. 3.

  • The seventh-ranked Cal women's tennis team completed an almost perfect run in the Weinman Foundation Invitational in Honolulu, winning all 12 of its matches on the last day of the three-day event Monday night. After heavy rains delayed the start of the action close to four hours, the Golden Bears won all eight of their singles matches and all four of their doubles matches.

    Cal dropped just two sets all day. In all, the Bears produced a 25-0 singles record at the invitational, which included No. 54 Hawaii -- the tournament host -- as well as Hawaii Pacific.
