MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – The Blue Raiders will compete at the Illini Invite this weekend hosted by the University of Illinois at the Atkins Tennis Center. Middle Tennessee will join Arizona State, Illinois and Tennessee in a hidden dual format, no team score will be recorded. All of the Blue Raiders will travel this weekend to play singles and doubles.
After a strong showing at the ITA All-American Championships, MT will look to build off of that momentum. In singles and doubles, the squad broke school history defeating two Top-10 foes on the same day. All of the teams Middle will be competing against this weekend finished in the Top-20 of the ITA team rankings at the end of last season.
This is the second to last fall tournament MT will play in with the Clemson Hidden Duals (Nov. 5-7) closing out a successful campaign.
HEAD COACH JIMMY BORENDAME ON THIS WEEKEND
"This will be great matches against all Top-20 teams from last year. A tournament like this with high caliber competition will help us prepare for the spring season. We are looking forward to getting our guys better each day."
