MACON, Georgia – The Georgia Southern women's tennis team recorded snine singles wins at the second tournament of the fall season over the weekend at the Mercer Gridiron Classic.

What head coach Sean McCaffrey had to say:  
"Looking back on the weekend at the Mercer Invite, I have come away with a great deal of excitement and optimism in the way our women had competed.  I believe our Eagles played with a great deal of energy and effort, and we have all come away with a strong feeling of pride.  We also learned a few things that we will be able to work on in the coming weeks that will only make us better.  Charlotte, Hannah, Paula (Hijos) and Mila all did a great job rising above the difficulties of playing multiple matches each day and came away stronger and wiser for it.  I am very encouraged about the direction we are headed in and I know the women are eager to get back on the court and get back to work."
 
Up Next:
The team will host the Georgia Southern Fall Shootout Oct. 11-13 before heading to the ITA Regional Championships Oct. 17-20. in Tallahassee, Florida.
