Women's Tennis Hosts Georgia Southern Fall Shootout
10/8/2021 2:31:00 PM | Women's Tennis
The Eagles welcome 10 other schools for singles and doubles action on Saturday and Sunday
Doubles action begins at 9:30 a.m. each day, with singles action to follow on all of the Wallis Tennis Center courts. In addition to the Eagles, the Georgia Southern Fall Shootout includes fellow Sun Belt schools Arkansas State and Georgia State; in-state rivals Mercer, Kennesaw State and No. 10-ranked Georgia Tech; perennial DIII power Emory; SoCon schools Chattanooga and Davidson, along with North Florida and Jacksonville State.
"The Eagles are really motivated to compete this weekend," Georgia Southern Head Women's Tennis Coach Sean McCaffrey said. "This is the fourth time that we've had the opportunity to host this event, and every year the level of tennis has continued to improve. This year's field is going to be fun to watch. The weather is forcing us to jam the event into two days, instead of three days, but we will certainly make the most of our time on the courts. Having the opporrunity to play in front of our fans is always a treat. This event allows our supporters to get to know some of our new faces, but it also allows our fans to continue cheering on the amazing Eagles who have dedicated so much to the program. The team has a lot of momentum, both from last year and from the work they have already put in this Fall. This event is an opportunity to showcase the work the ladies have put in."
