SAN ANTONIO – In a rescheduled match, the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi women's tennis program will wrap-up the 2021 regular season with a 1 p.m. match Sunday against UTSA at the UTSA Tennis Center.
The match was pushed back two days from Friday due to a scheduling conflict after the Islanders men's match was moved to that day after a weather postponement.
The Islanders (19-3, 9-2 SLC) concluded conference play last Sunday with a 6-1 win over Nicholls. The 2021 SLC bracket was announced earlier in the week and the fourth-seeded Islanders will face fifth-seeded Northwestern State at 2 p.m. Friday, April 23.
