It was a tough day for the DePaul Club Tennis A Team, who dropped all three of its pool-play matches on Thursday at the USTA Tennis on Campus Nationals in Cary, N.C.
DePaul faced a solid trio of universities on its first day — University of Minnesota, Texas A&M and Arizona State University.
The Demons’ first match was against the University of Minnesota, who were the 2015 National Runners Up. The tension was high after the Minnesota coach commented that “snitches get stitches” during the women’s double match. This heinous comment was in reference to DePaul Club Tennis President Jon Mulvey notifying the USTA nationals tournament director that Minnesota had two former varsity players on their team, which is blatantly against the rules of USTA Tennis on Campus.
