From the Coach
"We had a strong team performance overall last night by winning the doubles point and then sweeping all singles matches," said head coach
Jamie Peterson. "We struggled at times in some of the singles, but were able to overcome adversity and close out the matches. Have to give Delaware State credit, they competed hard, but it waas a good sign from the team that we didn't have great play but still secured the 7-0 win."
The Tigers return to action next Monday, March 16 at Richmond.
