Oxford, Miss. - In the last day of the Ole Miss Fall Classic, Ali Blackett was the only player to represent the Southern Miss Lady Eagle tennis team.
Blackett defeated Troy's Suzanne Jones, 7-6, 7-6, to become the champion of the White Draw Singles bracket.
"I'm very please with the weekend," replied head coach Randy Rowley. "The results were fantastic and I'm very happy with them."
Rowley continued, "More importantly is how the team came together and bonded on their first time out in the fall season. It's very important to be able to travel together and be there for each other. I'm very pleased."
The Lady Eagles return to action in the LeHigh Invitational which takes place October 13-15 in Bethlehem, Pa.
