FIRST SERVE
• With 13 non-conference matches in the books, the Aggies officially begin WAC play as they play host to both Utah Tech and Seattle U over the weekend.
• On paper, the Aggies have a good chance at finishing the weekend with a pair of wins as the Trailblazers and Redhawks enter the weekend with a combined three wins on the season. This is a very different look than what the Aggies faced the last time out when they took on two top-75 programs in No. 35 Illinois and No. 58 Arizona.
• Thus far, the Aggies have been led in singles play by Lisa Zhu who has tallied seven wins on the season – all coming at the No. 2 position.
• Meanwhile, Miranda Bishard's six wins on the season ranks second on the squad while Bella Nguyen, Natsuki Nishimura and Anna Pinaieva are currently tied for third on the Aggies in singles wins as each player has recorded five wins during the spring season.
• In doubles action, Bella Nguyen and Miranda Bishard lead the way with five victories while two other Aggie tandems have recorded four wins on the season (Natsuki Nishimura/Valeriia Ivanovskaia and Anna Pinaieva/Lisa Zhu).

UP NEXT
After a weekend on their home courts, the Aggies will hit the road for a pair of matches versus UT Arlington and UTRGV in Texas next weekend. NM State will face the Mavericks of UTA on Friday, March 24, before colliding with the Vaqueros on Sunday, March 26.
