RPI freshman McKinley Grimes helped the Engineers to a pair of victories over TCNJ and No. 27 Stevens by going 3-0. On Saturday against the Lions, he won at No. 2 doubles with partner Matt LaBarre, 8-4, and then won at No. 4 singles in straight sets, 6-4, 6-1, as RPI posted a 6-3 win. The next day against the Ducks, a 6-1 Rensselaer win, McKinley again teamed with LaBarre to win at No. 2 doubles, 8-4. His singles match was a 'no result' due to the expiration of court time.
