NOTRE DAME, Ind. --- Holy Cross College completed the three-peat on Saturday afternoon, capturing its third consecutive Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference Men's Tennis Tournament title with its 4-0 victory over No. 2 seed Olivet Nazarene University.

The Saints (12-2) earned their first point of the match by claiming two of the three doubles matches.  Perry Gregg and Luca McManus teamed up for a 6-2 win at No. 1, while Ching Wah Wai and Naithaolin Golmei produced the exact same score in the No. 2 slot.
