B/c Coastal and Radford did not play today, our men's tennis team will be seeded second going into the Big South tournament this weekend. I'm almost tempted to fly into Asheville to watch...

Highest seed ever, for the men anyway. Had the RU/CCU match been played and RU won, we would've been #1.
Our first match is on Sunday against UNC-A, one of the two Big South teams that beat us.

wouldnt a #2 seed get you a bye in the 1st rd or at least a bottom feeder team?

UNC-A is seeded #7. There are 9 teams. The first round is essentially a play-in match between #8 Gardner Webb and #9 Longwood, with the winner playing #1 Coastal. We are the only team to have beaten Coastal this year in conference play.

Dropped the doubles point, but we also dropped it when we played at their place too!!!
