Tennis drops road match to Army
The Syracuse tennis team dropped its second straight match as the Orange fell to Army, 5-2, at West Point, N.Y., Monday. While the match was supposed to be a home contest for Syracuse (8-3, 2-1), the match had to be moved because of inclement weather.
SU secured the doubles point when Emily Harman and Christina Tan won at the No. 1 doubles slot, 9-7, and Alessondra Parra and Simone Kalhorn won, 9-7, as well in the No. 3 match.
Syracuse, though, could not match its production in the singles matches. Harman fell at the No. 1 singles position (4-6, 6-3, 5-7), as did Tan at the second slot (0-6, 6-0, 6-7 (0-2)). Army won five of six singles matches.
The only Syracuse player to grab a singles victory was Kalhorn at the No. 3 slot with a victory over Sarah Giles-Madden (6-2, 6-4).
Syracuse has this weekend off and will face Florida International and South Florida next week, before hosting Connecticut on March 20.
