The MIT Badminton team took part in the CNASA Mixed Team Badminton Tournament held at MIT on October 7. During the group stages, MIT fought hard to finish second in their group, and ultimately advanced to the 3rd/4th playoff against Harvard. This was very tightly contested, with MIT winning the tie 3-2, with all three of MIT’s wins going to a third deciding set. A particular highlight was the final match of Men’s Doubles, where the MIT duo rallied back from 19-13 down in the final set to take home the match (and bronze medals for the team with it) 21-19.
