Arizona women’s tennis team hosts double-header

For its fourth match of the season, the Arizona women’s tennis team will host a double-header on Saturday at the LaNelle Robson Tennis Center starting at 10 a.m.

Still ranked No. 30 in the ITA NCAA Division I Rankings, the women’s team will start the day off by hosting San Diego.

After losing to San Diego last year 4-3, the women’s team looks to redeem itself in this match-up. Sophomore Kim Stubbe will rejoin the line-up after not playing in last weekend’s heartbreaking loss to Vanderbilt.

“San Diego is a very good team, but I feel we have the advantage of playing at home,” women’s head coach Vicky Maes said. “This is a must win for us. I am confident the team will put up the effort to pull off the win.”

Meanwhile, the men’s team looks to improve its undefeated record by hosting Cal Poly.

“This team has been an at-large bid for the NCAA Championships, so it’s going to be a tough match for us,” men’s head coach Tad Berkowitz said. “We are still on that high road from our last match and I like our skills against the team.”

This will be the first time since 2009 that Arizona and Cal Poly will face each other. In their last meeting, the Wildcats swept the Mustangs in a 7-0 defeat.
