The Florida Men's Tennis team enjoyed success for the second straight day at the Gator Invitational, winning seven of 10 matches against the Auburn Tigers at Ring Tennis Complex. Miami also squared off against South Florida, winning all eight matches. Although the teams competed head-to-head, the matches are only scored on an individual player-by-player basis.
Florida swept all three doubles matches, and each of Florida's four singles victories came in straight sets.
The Gator Invitational concludes tomorrow at Ring Tennis Complex, with Florida taking on the Miami Hurricanes at 9:00 am. Auburn will challenge South Florida also at 9:00 am.
