A very good Chattanooga team was able to sweep the Aces by a score of 7-0. Â Marine Darzyan and Marina Moreno were able to put up a fight at flight one doubles, taking the loss to Kayla Jones and Kelsey Coots by a score of 7-5.
Coach Wiseman added,”Chattanooga has a very strong team and it showed today. Â We just did not have quite enough firepower to hang with them today. Â The last couple road trips have been good preparation for our most extensive trip of the season and hopefully we have learned some things that will benefit our team the remainder of the season.”
As eluded to by Coach Wiseman, the Aces will go on a very extensive road trip next weekend.  They will compete on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday with matches against IUPUI, Ball State, Findlay, Wright State, Capital, and Ohio Wesleyan.  The Aces first home action will come on February 27th when they host UT Martin and Eastern Illinois at the Tri-State Athletic Club.
