Last Time Out
West Chester was back in action last on April 13 as the Golden Rams hosted Edinboro on South Campus. The match was played only to clinch due to weather, which had postponed the match from Saturday to Sunday, thereby forcing the Fighting Scots to play two matches on Sunday, beginning in West Chester before visiting Millersville on Sunday afternoon. West Chester fell by a 4-0 final after dropping first and third doubles to drop the doubles point before falling in first, fourth, and sixth singles.
Weather Report
Temperatures are expected to climb into the low 70s on Tuesday under partly cloudy skies with a chance of rain showers throughout the afternoon.
