TOWSON, Md. – The Towson University tennis team wrapped up its fall action this weekend at the ITA Regional Tournament hosted by Liberty University and the Greyhound Invitational hosted by Loyola.
How it Happened

- The pair split up for their singles matches and Lawson took a the lead in her game after trailing early 5-1, but neither would finish their singles games unfortunately due to rain that came in and playing on outside courts.

From the Coach
"The four girls who won really deserve a lot of praise," said head coach
Jamie Peterson. "They endured a lot of adversity and played winning tennis under pressure against a strong team, I'm very happy."
