The East Central Community College Warrior tennis team picked up a third straight win on Tuesday afternoon as the team swept the Northeast Mississippi Community College Tigers on their home courts in Booneville before falling to the Jacksonville College Jaguars on Wednesday. 

"We had a great chance to knock off a nationally ranked team in Jacksonville College," said ECCC coach Jay Pacelli. "We really needed a second point on the doubles courts, but our guys went after it in singles and made things interesting."
