The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga men's tennis team dropped a 5-2 match to Bryant University in Wilmington, N.C. today. The Mocs won two singles matches, but fell to 6-9 on the year.
Junior Pablo Llebeili and sophomore Simon Bustamante both in win singles action. Llebeili and senior Michael Birnbaum had the long win in doubles play.
"This team improves every day," stated UTC head coach Chuck Merzbacher. "This was a solid team today in Bryant. They have played a tough schedule and are match-tough. I was pleased that we equaled that toughness. We have a lot of strong teams left on the schedule and this spring break trip will definitely benefit us."
Up next for the Mocs is a pair of Southern Conference matches next weekend. The Mocs travel to Furman on Saturday, March 24, followed by a Sunday dual at Wofford.
