Critical Matches Await @NMStateMTEN

The NM State men’s tennis team will be playing for the regular-season title this weekend in Seattle.

LAS CRUCES, N.M. – The Western Athletic Conference Regular-Season title will be on the line this weekend when the New Mexico State men's tennis team heads to the Pacific Northwest this weekend for a pair of matches. Time for both matches are still TBA.
 
With a 13-8 overall record and 3-0 mark in WAC play, the winner on Friday, April 12, between the Aggies and Grand Canyon will give that team at least a share of the regular-season title. The Lopes enter the weekend 15-6 overall on the year and also 3-0 in conference play. GCU recently lost 4-1 to Arizona State on the road this past Sunday. NM State is 5-2 on the year in neutral site matches while GCU sits at 5-1.
 
The last time the two met up, GCU got the best of NM State 4-0 in the final match of the Golden State Invitational. That match, however, was just played in singles format due to weather and travel for teams participating.
 
Seattle U, who enter the weekend 4-9 overall and 0-2 in league play, will be NM State's final road block before heading to the WAC Tournament. The Redhawks have had some time to recoup and rest, not having played a match since going 0-2 in Las Cruces in the first WAC Pod of matches.
 
NM State will get a week off to rest up and prep for the conference tournament before heading to Brownsville, Texas, April 26-27.
