CHARLESTON, S.C. – Despite winning the doubles point for the second time in three matches this season Sunday morning, East Carolina faltered in singles play as host College of Charleston picked up a 6-1 victory at Patriots Point.

The Pirates will attempt to collect their first win of the campaign when they travel to Durham Feb. 3 for a 1 p.m. meeting with N.C. Central at the Younge Tennis Courts.

ECU excelled in doubles play, emerging victorious on courts two and three. Ines Bachir and Martina Muzzolon both pushed their opponents to three sets at the No. 1 and No. 2 position in singles but could not quite finish the job as the Cougars ended up winning all six bouts.
