ACCORDING TO COACH O: "SCAD Bees played some really good tennis today. Unfortunately, we struggled on some of the Division I format in singles. We let some of the deuce points slip away from us in the process" explains Head Coach Ken Obermeier. "Doubles were good. We had great energy from the number one doubles team. Our two and three doubles got off to a slow start, so dropping only one point from doubles may have been more to our advantage."
 
WHAT'S NEXT? The Bees' Senior Day match has been rescheduled. They will now host Senior Day on Saturday, April 7 at home at 2:00 p.m. The team will play Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College.
