PALM SPRINGS, Calif.- Pacific men's tennis split their last two matches of their California trip. The Boxers claimed a 6-3 win over Occidental on Wednesday before dropping a match on Thursday to Tufts University to conclude the trip.
"Tough match to end our week, but really proud of the effort today," said Head Coach
Brian Jackson. "We fought hard against one of the best teams in D3, but they were just too much for us. A good week for us overall, and a lot of lessons learned. We look forward to getting healthy and building on these experiences for the final few weeks of the season."
