Men’s tennis to prepare for second matchup of season

East Carolina University’s men’s tennis team is preparing to play its second match of the spring season tomorrow after winning its first match last Saturday.

The Pirates will host the United States Naval Academy as they look to stay perfect after defeating Presbyterian College 4-3 in comeback fashion. ECU has had success against Navy in the past, defeating them 6-1 in Annapolis in its last matchup on Feb. 5.

“Our first match (against Presbyterian) helped us a lot in preparing for the rest of the season. We were eager to play no matter what happened,” head coach Shawn Heinchon said.
