After playing away from home for over a month, the University of Kentucky women’s tennis team (6-4, 1-1 SEC) is excited to return to the Hillary J. Boone Varsity Tennis Center for their upcoming matches. The Wildcats will face Southeastern Conference opponents, No. 3 Georgia (8-3, 2-0 SEC) and No. 16 Tennessee (9-2, 2-0 SEC), on Friday and Sunday, respectively. Additionally, they will play in-state rival Bellarmine (3-10) on Sunday at 4 p.m.
Kentucky is hoping to secure its second conference win this season, having recently achieved victory against Mississippi State, but suffered a tough loss at Ole Miss last weekend, bringing their conference record to 1-1. The Mississippi State win marked the team’s first SEC victory since April 8, 2021.
In the last season, the Wildcats were defeated by Georgia and Tennessee with scores of 0-4 in both matches. However, the team managed to beat Bellarmine with a 4-0 victory in their previous matchup in Lexington. The Friday match against Georgia will start at noon EST, followed by Sunday’s matchups against Tennessee and Bellarmine.
