Reinhardt Tennis takes on SCAD Atlanta for the Home Opener
Waleska, GA - Reinhardt Eagles Tennis got their spring 2023 season underway at Bridgemill Tennis Facility on Friday, February 4th with a match up with SCAD ATL University. The Men's Team came away with the 6-1 win and the Women's Team lost a tight one 3-4.
Unfortunately, SCAD Atlanta had a few people missing on the Men's side and this gave Reinahrdt a few points - however, most of the Eagle players would much rather have been playing that day. SCAD was only able to fill one doubles match and three singles matches. The doubles team of Pau Pujedes & Fede Zeiter came up just short of a win in the doubles match and Zeiter & Bruno Squarcia one handley in the singles matches.
On the Women's side, the doubles team of Pilar Becerra and Mia Holdinghaus won 7-6 in their doubles match while Nina Thomet, Becerra, and Elyse Standing won in their singles matches.
It was cold and windy start to the season, but warmer weather is almost here so both teams will have a lot to look forward to as the season progresses. The Men's Team is currently ranked #24 in the NAIA so you can expect them to have several players do really well this spring. The Women's side have several solid players as well that will provide strong competition for the AAC this season.
The next match is Thursday, Feb. 16th starting at 9:30 am vs Cumberland (TN) at Bridgemill again!
