For the Jackets men’s and women’s tennis teams, the peak of ACC competition season is still months away. While the fall provides the group an opportunity to gauge itself against the rest of the NCAA, championships are won and lost in the spring.
In the meantime, though, another group of competitors is slicing and volleying its way to wins against foes across the South and beyond. The Tech club tennis team ignited its season two weekends ago with a fifth-place finish in the United States Tennis Association’s Tennis on Campus (TOC) 2016 Fall Invitational.
The tournament, originally scheduled to take place in early October, was pushed back to the month’s last weekend thanks to Hurricane Matthew.
