Franklin Springs, GA - The Lady Lions defeated Piedmont College in a convincing fashion with a comfortable score 6-3. Overall, a very good performance from your Lady Lions, who are starting to look more confident every time they step on the court.
Yesterday's match was the first team victory for the Lady Lions this season, but even more impressive, for 6 out of 9 girls it was their first team victory at the college level, as they are advancing through their Freshman year of college tennis.
Congratulations, Emmanuel College Lady Lions!
