STATESBORO – The Georgia Southern women's tennis team got back in the win column Saturday afternoon with a 6-1 win over Presbyterian at the Wallis Tennis Center.
The Eagles (5-2) won every doubles contest and all but one singles contest. Paula Boixader, Hannah Daniel, Nadja Meier, Paula Hijos and Charlotte van Diemen all went 2-0 on the day with wins in both doubles and singles play.
The win over the Blue Hose (0-6) is the 10th overall in the series and makes it seven straight for GS.
What head coach Sean McCaffrey said:
"I felt today was a great step forward for the ladies. From the beginning of doubles, we came out with a lot of energy and focus. We kept things simple and played with a great discipline. In singles, we did a great job of playing the way we wanted. Even when we aren't winning points, I was happy with the how we stayed poised."
"We are looking forward to getting back on the court this week as we prepare for UNF and Mercer."
