Georgia Southern Defeats Toledo 6-1 In First Ever Meeting
STATESBORO – The Georgia Southern women's tennis team won its third straight match Wednesday 6-1 over Toledo at the Wallis Tennis Center.
The Eagles (9-4) went 2-1 in doubles play to take the team point early. From there, Georgia Southern defeated the Rockets (4-7) in every singles contest but one to secure the win. The Eagles are now 6-2 at home in 2020.
What head coach Sean McCaffrey said:
"Today was one of the more solid performances we have had this year. I felt that way due to the way we played over this past weekend, and today proved that this team is headed in the right direction. Getting the doubles point was crucial. Toledo is a very well coached team and is quite tenacious in doubles play. Our ladies put in the effort necessary to grab the win. We had to do without one of our usual starters and that's not easy, but they knew what to do. We are really excited for the weekend."
