The Florida A&M University's men's tennis team has consistently been at the top of the Mid-Eastern Atlantic Conference for nearly a decade. Under the leadership of Coach Carl Goodman, the Rattlers have been the top-ranked team in the MEAC for the same period, but has always fallen short of claiming the title.
For the News 20 at 5 newscast on Monday, I shot, wrote, edited and reported on a story about the team's championship title woes, which I have posted below.
Some interesting tidbits about the Rattlers tennis team: the team has had a good recruiting relationship with players from the African continent; particularly from southern Africa. Goodman is not just a coach, he holds a Ph.D and is an associate professor of pharmacology and toxicology, and he holds his players to a high academic standard. The men's tennis graduates the most student-athletes on time of any sport.
