Mobile, Ala. – Sam Rice won his eighth straight singles match but it was not enough as the Charlotte 49ers (5-1) suffered their first loss of the season with a 6-1 setback at South Alabama (2-2).
"A disappointing loss for us today," Charlotte coach Jeremy Feldman said. "We felt like we were more than capable of beating South Alabama. We just weren't able to execute as well as we would have liked in the big moments. South Alabama definitely deserves credit for being able to execute in pressure situations. We will learn from this loss and get back to work and prepare for Mercer and Georgia Southern in a couple of weeks.
