For the first tennis match of the 2024 season, the ULM tennis team (1-0) started strong as ever with a grueling, yet rewarding, 5-2 victory over the LSU Shreveport Pilots. The competition on Friday was three and a half hours of pure adrenaline and sweat. The Warhawks went toe-to-toe and wing-to-wing with the Pilots to start the season on a good note.
Given that the Warhawks faltered last season with a humbling 26.1 percent winning rate in conference, many lowered their bar to the ground for the 2024 season. A new coach and a team full of new players meant a lot of learning needed to be done.
