Women's tennis beats CSUcks (I have nothing but pure, unadulterated loathing for Mike Baker) 5-2. CSU was picked to win the conference and beat Winthrop (perennial conference champion and favorite) 4-3 earlier this year.

Men's tennis remains undefeated in conference play, beating Coastal 4-3. Coastal was picked to win on the men's side this year.

The new facilities help, for sure. Plus an awesome coaching staff that knows how to recruit, including connections with alumni players, and reach out to the community as well :wink:

I was working both the women's and men's games yesterday. Seagur's singles match was so long and intense the broadcast crew went completely insane when it was over. But I think anyone would when they can finally go home after 11+ hours.

Oh trust me, I completely understand that. I miss working with the teams and the intensity of the matches.
