Murfreesboro, Tenn. - Rhodes men's tennis kept fans in suspense on Twitter during their opening game of the 2018 Southern Athletic Association Tournament.

The Stormy Petrels won in the third and fourth positions but with the game tied 5-5 in the third set, P.J. Shaw came up with the clutch decision by earning the final two points in the second singles slot.
