Men's Tennis Set for Toledo and Tennessee Tech

Card will host doubleheader Saturday
The University of Louisville men's tennis team will play host to Toledo and Tennessee Tech in a double header Saturday at the Bass-Rudd Tennis Center. The Cardinals (8-3) will face the Rockets (8-5) at 10 a.m. and the Golden Eagles (5-2) at 6 p.m. Admission is free.
"This is probably our most difficult double header of the season," said UofL head coach Rex Ecarma. "Both Toledo and Tennessee Tech are quality teams. We beat Tennessee Tech 4-3 last season on the final court. A lot of players will need to play for us in a day like this."
