Pirates sweep Bucknell in spring break showdown

On the road in San Diego, California, the East Carolina University men’s tennis swept Bucknell University 7-0 on Mar. 11. The Pirates had three matches scheduled over spring break in California, but were only able to squeeze in their neutral site match against the Bison.

The Mar. 10 match against the University of California at Riverside was originally postponed due to weather, but amidst the COVID-19 or coronavirus pandemic, the match was later canceled along with the Mar. 12 match at the University of California at Irvine and the rest of the spring season.

The Pirates started slow in doubles play, but were still able to sweep Bucknell 7-0!
