Ahmed Abdel Khalek won his 50th straight match in dramatic fashion on Sunday as he defeated St. Lawrence's Moustafa Bayoumy 3-2 (11-3, 7-11, 11-6, 7-11, 11-8) at the Bates Squash Center in the Maine Round Robin.

"We have been playing each other since age 10, so we know how we both play, whenever I play any shot he's on it and whenever he plays any shot, I'm on it," Abdel Khalek '16 (Cairo, Egypt) said. "I couldn't sleep last night. I am very relieved and happy. I am proud to play on this team and for Bates College."

Abdel Khalek, the 2015 national champion, was originally supposed to play against 2013 national champion Amr Khalifa of St. Lawrence. But Khalifa was scratched due to an injury. Nonetheless, it was a hard-fought match between Abdel Khalek and fellow Egyptian Bayoumy.
