Serving It Up

• The Eagles closed out the fall portion of their schedule on Nov. 9 with back-to-back home tournaments: The Georgia Southern Championships and the Georgia Southern Round Robins
• Assistant Coach Carlos Oyaga is serving as interim Head Coach following the resignation of former Head Coach Nick Zieziula.
• Jose Eduardo Landin Lopez is riding a 3 match win streak into the spring season, while teammate Ristomatti Lanne is currently on a 2 match win streak.
• The doubles tandem of Kyle Hoffman/Landin Lopez takes a 3 match win streak to Georgia Tech
• The Georgia Tech roster is comprised on nearly 50% freshman, but look for plenty of competition from the ACC school.   

Coach Oyaga's Thoughts
"We are all really excited for this season. These past few days we had quality practice sessions and all the guys are hungry to compete. Saturday's match gives another opportunity for the team to keep improving."
