Tennis Monarchs Fall at Clemson, 6-1
CLEMSON, S.C. - The Old Dominion men's tennis team (0-2) fell to Clemson (3-1) by a 6-1 score on Sunday afternoon at the Duckworth Family Tennis Facility.
Jannik Giesse picked up a straight set victory for the Monarchs over the Tigers' Daniel Labrador (6-2, 6-0).
"This was another match where the scoreboard doesn't tell the entire truth," said ODU head coach Dominik Mueller. "We lost two matches with match points, so if we convert those, then the entire dynamic looks different. But, truthfully we dug ourselves too big of a hole first one and half hours of the dual match. We need to do a better job playing big points on our terms. We will work on that this week in practice."
