Terriers lose in semifinals
The fourth-seeded Boston University men’s tennis team competed in the America East Tournament last weekend at Yale University in New Haven, Conn. Following an opening-round victory over the University of Hartford last Friday, the Terriers lost against Binghamton University in the semifinals last Saturday before dropping a consolation match to Stony Brook University.

Dirk Nowitzki doesn’t head to Dallas without ESPN. Fenway Park sits decaying without NESN. Scott Boras isn’t a household name without the Fox Sports Network.
