FIRST SERVE
• After opening WAC play with a pair of home wins last weekend, NM State will put its two-match win streak on the line as they travel to Texas to take on UT Arlington and UTRGV on Friday and Sunday, respectively.
• NM State's first match of the weekend will come against one of just two other schools in the WAC who hoist a 2-0 record after one week of action. UT Arlington opened league play with a 5-2 win over Abilene Christian on Friday, March 17, before knocking off Tarleton 6-1 on Sunday, March 19.
• NM State will then face off with UTRGV who sits at 1-1 in WAC matches, however, the Vaqueros have won three of their last four matches to leave them with a .500 win percentage on the season.
• Thus far, the Aggies have been led in singles play by Lisa Zhu who now has eight wins on the season – all coming at the No. 2 position.
• Meanwhile, Anna Pinaieva, Miranda Bishard and Bella Nguyen are tied for second on the team in singles wins with seven a piece. Pinaieva and Ngueyn are also two of five Aggies that are currently on a two-match singles win streak as they are joined by Melissa Cartis, Valeriia Ivanovskaia and Dora Kurdi.
• In doubles action, Bella Nguyen and Miranda Bishard continue to lead the way with seven victories while the No. 1 tandem of Anna Pinaieva and Lisa Zhu collected a pair of wins last weekend to rank second on the team in doubles wins with six on the season.
