Cornell has won the last three meetings, but a history of closely contested matches makes this an intriguing opening test for both teams.Columbia arrives looking to build on a strong finish to a challenging season. After falling outside the top 12 during the regular season, the Lions regrouped to win the Kurtz Cup at the Divisional Team Championships and finish No. 13 nationally. Cornell earned a place at the National Team Championships and finished No. 7.The Big Red will look to extend their winning streak in the series on home courts, while Columbia has an early opportunity to carry last season’s late momentum into a new campaign.Men’s Match of the Week: No. 8 Yale at No. 4 VirginiaSunday, November 15 | 2:45 p.m. | University of Virginia<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=1JNSC6_1H1mxp6j00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=1JNSC6_1H1mxp6j00" width="1024" height="1280" ></figure>Virginia gets another shot at Yale on Sunday after the Bulldogs handed the Cavaliers a heartbreaking 5–4 defeat at last season’s National Team Championships. UVA had earned the No. 4 seed following a strong regular season that included a win on Yale’s home courts, but the Bulldogs prevailed when the teams met again on the championship stage.That result adds another chapter to a rivalry that has grown increasingly compelling over the past few seasons. Yale has won six of the last seven meetings, while Virginia has pushed to establish itself among the nation’s top four. Now ranked No. 4, the Cavaliers opened their season last weekend with a 6–3 win over Drexel and will look to build on that start against a familiar rival.Yale begins its season at Navy before continuing to Charlottesville. After graduating several top players, the Bulldogs enter the season looking to establish a new lineup and prove they can continue to compete with the country’s best. Virginia, meanwhile, has an opportunity to answer last year’s championship defeat with a win on home courts.This Weekend’s Order of PlayThe order of play is randomly assigned each weekend.
