Men's Tennis Defeats Memphis, 4-2; Downs UNO, 4-0

BATON ROUGE, La. – The LSU Men’s Tennis team (6-2) took down Memphis (2-5) on Sunday by a score of 4-2 and ended the day with a 4-0 win over New Orleans (1-1).

Danny’s Thoughts
“Came out really strong in doubles against Memphis,” said head coach Danny Bryan. “This was something we emphasized yesterday in practice so I was glad to see the improvement. In singles Alessio and Julien did a great job of getting us to three points pretty quickly and Andrej came through for us with the clinch. Now it’s back to work for a few days before heading to Houston to take on Rice Friday night”
