RAMS RUNDOWN
Suffolk is in the hunt for its first victory of the season as it enters Tuesday's tilt with an 0-6 overall record and a 0-3 CNE ledger.  

Mehdi Mered has played five of the Rams' six matches in the first singles slot and sports a 1-4 record. He is one of four Suffolk players with a singles win this year as Henry Blanchard (1-5), Sein Kim (1-5) and Abhi Patel (1-4) have all record one singles point apiece.  

Suffolk has been unable to secure a doubles win this season. Mered and Patel have teamed up for three matches as the top tandem, while the twosome of Kim and Jason Yany have played the most matches, four, together.  

BLUE JAYS BREAKDOWN
USJ is 5-7 on the year and 0-3 in CNE contests. The Blue Jays look to snap a three-match skid Tuesday.  

Karol Romer is the usual ace for USJ. He brings in an 8-3 singles mark exclusively at No. 1. He has also been a go-to on the top doubles court. He has partnered with numerous teammates for the No. 1 team, however, Mateus Silvestre is Romer's usual teammate in doubles action. That duo is 2-5. Rodrigo Torres is a singles threat as well with an 8-3 mark on courts one (1-0) and two (7-3).
