Men's Tennis Plays Host to Georgia State

The University of Louisville men's tennis team prepares for a mid-week matchup against Georgia State on Thursday at 5:00 p.m. Admission is free.

"Georgia State is a very good team and I commend Coach Brett Ross for building the program up," said UofL head coach Rex Ecarma. "They upset Florida State in Tallahassee and Auburn in the first round of the National Kick-Off. We consider this match like an ACC match so we will work very hard to prepare."
