CHATTANOOGA --- The Chattanooga Mocs men's tennis team returns home for the first time in nearly a month as the squad faces Samford in Southern Conference action on Saturday afternoon at the UTC Tennis Center. First serve is slated for 1 p.m. ET.
Chattanooga enters the weekend carrying a 3-2 record in SoCon play (5-14 overall) and sits in a tie for third in the league standings. The Mocs are coming off a hard-fought 5-2 loss at league-leading No. 68 ETSU last Sunday. The Bucs sit atop the standings with a 4-0 tally.
The duo of
Kerim Hyatt and
Kaisei Kuroki have posted victories at the No. 2 slot of doubles the past three matches to help the team's efforts. In singles play,
Simon Labbe saw a four-match win streak snapped last week at ETSU in three-set tiebreaking fashion.
Samford comes into action this weekend with a 4-12 mark overall and a 2-3 record inside the SoCon. The Bulldogs are coming off a league victory last Sunday following a 5-2 triumph over Wofford in Birmingham. The win snapped a five-match losing skid with four of the matches coming in non-conference action.
