Cannoneers drop spring opener to Division II GCU

LAKEWOOD, NJ -- Pratt women's tennis lost its spring season opener and its first contest against an NCAA Division II opponent, falling to Division II Georgian Court University, 7-2 on Saturday.

The Cannoneers scored their points on defaults in sixth singles and third doubles.
