ATLANTA – The No. 62 ranked Virginia women’s tennis team dropped its fifth consecutive match, falling to No. 39 Georgia Tech Saturday afternoon in Atlanta. The loss drops the Cavaliers’ record to 9-7 on the season, 0-2 in the ACC.

Georgia Tech (10-5, 3-0 ACC) took an early advantage by taking all three doubles matches to take the doubles point. The Cavaliers then needed to win four singles matches to rally in the dual match. Three of the singles matches went three sets, but the Cavaliers could not post a win in any of them.

The Cavaliers will return to action Sunday as they visit Clemson.
