Overall, Albert Codina-Sala finished on top for the Eagles, with two singles wins and two doubles wins.
Coach Nick Zieziula said, "We showed some progress through the weekend in our doubles movement, but we have to be much more disciplined from start to finish in every spot in the lineup. We have two weeks to prepare for our home tournament and we need to make the most of that preparation time."
October 4-6 men's tennis will host the Georgia Southern Championships at the Hanner Tennis Complex.
