GOLDEN EAGLE FLASHBACK: Golden Eagles top Belmont in OVC tennis final

April 22, 2018 NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Before the match began at Centennial Sportsplex, Belmont looked confident. After all they had beaten the Tennessee Tech men’s tennis team 5-2 just a week earlier to clinch the No. 1 seed in the Ohio Valley Conference tournament. However, the Golden Eagles weren’t fazed. After all, the tournament championship was a familiar spot for them, having won the previous two and eight all time. So when Tech earned a 4-3 victory, going all the way down to the final pairing and freshman Riku Kubota, the Golden Eagles may not have won it decisively, but they certainly earned it.
