The first serve was made on Monday evening between Tallulah Falls and visiting Banks County. Both the Indians (3-1) and Lady Indians (3-0) earned abbreviated wins as the rain washed away many of the matches that were still ongoing. However, both teams were able to clinch the wins with 3 line wins.

The Lady Indians got singles wins from Ashli Webb and Maggie Peacock, and a doubles win from Sophie Herrera and Landry Carnes. The Indians got singles wins from Josh Jackson and Tanner Davis, as well as a doubles win for Jake Owensby and Zach Carringer.
