Box Score HILTON HEAD, S.C. - The Western Connecticut State University men's tennis team fell to St. Mary's College of Maryland on Monday afternoon, 9-0, on the second day of their Spring trip. WCSU was originally scheduled to meet Nazareth, however, St. Mary's was able to step in and complete the match.
