When Thursday began in Mylan World TeamTennis, one team was perfect—while one other was anything but.
By the end of the night, however, neither of those things remained true, as the Springfield Lasers sprung one of the first big surprises of the season, taking four of the five sets against the Philadelphia Freedoms to come away with a 24-19 victory. The Lasers claimed their first victory of the season to move to 1-4, while the Freedoms —the league’s last unbeaten team after beating the Washington Kastles on Wednesday—fell to 4-1 on the season.
