"The Liberty men's tennis team uncharacteristically dropped the doubles point to Gardner-Webb, Monday afternoon, as the Flames fell, 5-2, in their Big South Conference road match in Boiling Springs, N.C. The match marked the Flames' first action since March 17, with weather cancelling or postponing each of their scheduled matches during the span."
I agree with Liberty's intro here... our men can play doubles! It is unusual that they didn't win the doubles point. Having said that it has been a long time since their last match on March 17th, that has to be a factor!!
