Southeast falls at Morehead State

~ The Redhawks fell to 1-4 in the OVC with what coach Pacelli called "a tough, tough loss."

MOREHEAD, Ky. -- The Southeast Missouri State women's tennis team suffered a narrow 4-3 Ohio Valley Conference loss to host Morehead State Saturday.

Southeast (8-9, 1-4) and Morehead State (5-14, 3-3) split the six singles matches, but the Eagles captured the doubles point, which proved decisive.

"It was a tough, tough loss," Southeast coach Jay Pacelli said. "They played very well and you have to give them credit, but this one hurts."

The Redhawks will try to bounce back today with an OVC match at Eastern Kentucky.
