CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (September 21, 2025) – Dodging rain drops, the Chattanooga Mocs women's tennis team concluded its fall-opening event on Sunday at the Austin Peay Invite hosted by the Govs in Clarksville, Tenn.
 
Rain washed the majority (all) of play on Sunday in Clarksville after Friday's action was also cut short due to weather. Head coach Chad Camper didn't let the rain stop his team from progressing.
 
"Despite the rain delays, the team made a huge step forward and I am pleased on how well everyone worked together," said Camper. "We still have a lot to work on, but we took a great first step forward this weekend."
