Men's tennis drops match to Miami
The Troy men’s tennis team fell 4-0 to the Miami Hurricanes this past Wednesday. The match continued their Florida trip, as they faced Florida State last Sunday.
With the match set to be played on Tuesday morning, the south Florida weather disrupted things and pushed the match to Wednesday. Because of the weather, singles matches were played first in Miami’s sweep.
