Box Score Keiser men's tennis completed day three in Rome, Georgia for the ITA Cup. The Seahawks played a total of seven matches and will have another four matches tomorrow to end the tournament.
Head Coach
Daniel Finn said, "They had an up-and-down day to finish. This was not the end result we came here for but proud of the guys and how they continued to compete throughout. Jesse and Christian had a strong showing with a lot of chances today but circumstances didn't help out either. In the end, no match here is easy they are competing against the best 16 players in the nation. Some good things come out of it and of course, there are some things that we see that we need to work on. The ceiling is very high for this group of boys if we can continue to push forward. We will take a few days to rest and recover and get back to work to prepare for what's next".
