(SAN DIEGO) The third time was the charm for No. 21 PLNU Men's Tennis.
Â
After having its match against Concordia postponed twice due to inclement weather, the two teams were finally able to play on Tuesday, with Point Loma claiming a 4-3 victory.
Â
"The men's team came through with a great win today against Concordia," Head Coach Curt Wheeler said. "This match was postponed twice over the past week due to weather, which was challenging with regards to preparation.
