Ulysses Zhang (15-1, 9-15, 15-4) and David Wang (15-7, 15-5) won their fourth and fifth singles matches, respectively, while the tandems of Caleb Spreckels and Jack Yu (15-5, 15-6), Ian Liu and David Chen (17-14, 15-4), and Sam Han and Sam Wong (15-5, 15-2) earned doubles wins to give the Brook the win.

The girls dropped a narrow, 4-5, decision to the Panthers.

The Bears are back in action this afternoon in a match-up at Half Hollow Hills.
