MONTREAT, NC – North Carolina A&T men's tennis put a 'W' back in the win's column on Wednesday after taking eight days off from competition. It seemed to help. The refreshed Aggies defeated the Montreat Cavaliers 7-0 at Cornwall Tennis Center thanks to two three-set wins in singles play.
The Aggies ended a two-match losing streak, improving to 12-2 overall ahead of their Thursday matchup at home against UNC Greensboro at the Piedmont Indoor Tennis Center at 2 p.m.
