Postgame Quote: 
Towson head coach Jamie Peterson: "The College of Charleston played very well. Their coach told me that is the best they have played all season. The doubles was disappointing, but the girl really turned it around and showed a lot of energy in the singles. Out of all these matches against tougher schools, this was the best match so far as far a competitive spirit. It is going to be a process for us to adjust to the conditions of playing outdoors. The schedule lightens up a little bit and we are going to start to put together some wins."
 
Next Match: 
Towson will remain in Charleston to play South Carolina State Monday at the College of Charleston Tennis Center. The match will begin at 11 a.m.
