App State Defeats UC San Diego in Final NIT Match

PEACHTREE CITY, Ga. – In its final match of the 2023 season, App State capped its first postseason appearance with a 4-0 victory over UC San Diego in Thursday's consolation draw of the inaugural Universal Tennis NIT Championship.

The Mountaineers finished the campaign with a 14-9 overall record and were tied for third in the final Sun Belt standings. The 14 wins are tied for the second-most in a season in program history.

A day after falling short of a comeback attempt against No. 70 Wyoming, head coach Ashleigh Antal's squad bounced back admirably indoors against the Tritons (10-16) from southern California.
