Men's Tennis Prepares for Regional Tournament

A Photo Story

Mississippi College (MC) welcomed players from Jones College, Meridian Community College, the University of West Alabama, William Carey University, and the University of Texas at Tyler over the weekend in an individual tournament. Head coach Michael Ward organized the tournament to prepare the men’s team for this weekend's Intercollegiate Tennis Association regional tournament in Florida. Ward had five flights of singles and three flights of doubles, ranked by strength of individuals, not team. The tournament was hosted at the MC tennis courts and Brighton Park.
