Auburn, Ala. -- The Troy University men's tennis team fell 7-0 to No. 19 Auburn on Wednesday. The loss drops the Trojans to 1-5 on the season, with all five losses coming to top-50 opponents.
"Auburn was just a better team today," said Troy head coach Eric Hayes. "We played well, and we had some tough matches, but that wasn't enough to get it done against as good a team as Auburn is."
The Trojans return to action on Friday when they play in their home and conference opener against UCF at 2:30.
