WASHINGTON, Pa. -- The Presidents scored a pair of doubles victories, but dropping five singles matches proved costly in a 6-3 loss to Pitt-Greensburg.
With the loss, the Washington & Jefferson men's tennis team slips to 2-4 overall in 2015-16, including a 1-3 mark in the fall. The Bobcats remain undefeated at 3-0 after previously toppling a pair of Presidents' Athletic Conference opponents in Waynesburg and Geneva.
W&J will return to the court with a nonconference match at NCAA Division II Fairmont State on Thursday, March 31 at 3:30 p.m.
