The Last Time Out
The Kennesaw State men's tennis team battled all day before dropping a 4-3 decision to Liberty on Saturday morning at Lifetime Fitness.

Moments later, Bryan Triana (4-6, 6-3, 6-2) knocked off Vince Salas at No.4 singles. Drew Lahey (7-5, 6-3) collected a win over Alex Poynter at No.5 singles. Liberty would clinch the match with a win in the No.6 singles match.
