The Marist men's tennis team defeated Fairfield, 4-0 in the MAAC Tournament semifinals. The match was stopped as soon as Marist clinched the victory. The Red Foxes advanced to their eighth-straight MAAC Title match with the win and will face Manhattan tomorrow.
The Red Foxes have fallen to the Jaspers in the last two tournament finals and will look to snap that streak this year.
