The “brand new rivalry” that men’s tennis head coach Joey Rive used to describe yesterday’s TCU and SMU match looked a lot like the old rivalry.
The Frogs, ranked No. 19 in the nation, played a hard-fought match, but in the end, fell short against the No. 9-ranked Mustangs (2-0), 4-3. The match was moved indoors due to inclement weather.

The meet, which lasted approximately 4 1/2 hours, was marked by intense play by both teams.
“It was a long match, but we gave a strong performance,” Rive said. “The guys showed a lot of ability. In truth, we were one point from winning the meet.”
