MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Using strong doubles play and valiant rallies in singles, the Memphis men's tennis team claimed a 5-2 season-opening victory against Indiana Saturday night at the Racquet Club of Memphis.
"It was an exciting match and hard fought. Both teams played very well, I thought, especially for very early in the season," head coach Paul Goebel said. "We had a fantastic crowd that gave us a lot of energy. The doubles point was huge for us, and then in singles, the first sets were close, but I think the second sets on, we started to get more comfortable and played a lot better.
