Match Vitals

Final: Southern Wesleyan 9, Erskine 0

Record: Southern Wesleyan (7-10 / CC 4-5), Erskine (2-16 / CC 2-8)

Coach Jernigan Says...

"Guys played great today. Started off sluggish in doubles so had to challenge them going into singles play and they responded. We cannot get too comfortable because we can lose our edge. They went into singles with the proverbial chip on the shoulder and really set the tone early. Proud of them and now we can turn our focus toward Emmanuel College."
