KENNESAW, Ga. – Kennesaw State women's tennis fell to Liberty 4-0 on Saturday afternoon. The Flames handed the Owls their second defeat on the 2022 season.

KSU Director of Tennis Matt Emery on the Match
"Credit to Liberty, I thought they executed just a little bit better today. We are excited to get back out there again tomorrow against Bellarmine. I'm proud, as always, of this group. We will learn from the few areas we came up short and get right back to competing as hard as we can again tomorrow."
 
How it Happened
After being rescheduled from Friday to Saturday due to lightning and rain, the Owls and Flames picked back up in the middle of doubles play Saturday afternoon. The Flames jumped out to a 1-0 lead after taking the doubles point before winning three straight singles matches to secure the 4-0 victory.
