SUMTER, S.C. – The Citadel men's tennis team returns to action with a pair of matches on Saturday. The Bulldogs will take on USC Sumter at 10 a.m., and South Carolina State at 1:30 p.m. Both matches will be played at the Palmetto Tennis Center in Sumter.

The Bulldogs are off to an 0-3 start to the season after dropping a pair of matches at Coastal Carolina on Monday.
