STATESBORO, Ga.- On Saturday, the Georgia Southern men's tennis team opens up a three-match swing at home starting this weekend at 11 a.m. against Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College. Winning the last five matches, the team posted a 14-5 record moving into the weekend.
"We have had a solid week of practice and we will be ready for the match," head coach
Sander Koning said. "We don't know much about ABAC, but I assume they will be very excited to play us. We are one of the few Division 1 programs they play so they will come at us with everything they got."
The Golden Stallions are also showing off a five-match winning streak, most recently winning against Georgia Southwestern 7-2.
After blanking the Citadel 7-0, the Eagles jumped to the best record since 1993. Senior
Rise Lanne's performances last week against the Citadel and Mercer earned him his second Sun Belt Athlete of the Week honor thanks to his two singles and doubles wins at the No.1 spot.
