Hilton Head, SC – The Millsaps Majors Men's Tennis traveled to Hilton Head, South Carolina for Spring Break as they opened their weekend of play against NAIA Georgetown College out of Kentucky. Freshman Charles Rees played excellent for Millsaps, picking up wins in his singles and doubles match, but the Tigers were too much as they defeated Millsaps 7-2.
 
Rees defeated his opponents in singles to begin his day as he took the match 6-4, 6-2. He and teammate David Bastian then moved on to the doubles competition where they picked a crucial win over their opponents in convincing fashion, 8-3. The No. 2 team was tied at 2-2 as they went on to take six of the next seven games to win the match.
 
The Majors as a whole played well against a formidable opponent. The team faced many deuce games and couldn't quite come again with the win.
 
Millsaps returns to action tomorrow afternoon as they face Heidelberg University. The match was set to begin at 8 a.m. but has now been pushing back to 12 p.m.
