LEWISBURG, Pa. - The Bucknell and Mount St. Mary's tennis teams are hoping the third time really is the charm when it comes to playing their scheduled matches. Originally scheduled for April 1, postponed to April 5 and now April 15 due to inclement weather, the Bison men's and women's tennis teams hope finally to face off with the Mountaineers.
But in those eight days, the Mount St. Mary's match could serve as either a tune-up for the Patriot League postseason or just more tennis experience for both the men's and women's squads. The Bison women (12-2, 1-2 PL) have their penultimate league match Wednesday afternoon against Lehigh, one they must win in order to keep a realistic chance of making the league postseason. They will have their last league match against Army on Saturday.
The Bucknell men (7-7, 1-3 PL) have teams in the bottom half of the Patriot League coming up, with the team heading to Lehigh on Thursday and hosting Navy in a rescheduled match next Tuesday.
