AUBURN, Ala - Hosting an NCAA regional for the first time, Auburn’s women’s tennis team looked right at home Friday, beating Alcorn State, 4-0 at Yarbrough Tennis Center.

The No. 11 Tigers will play No. 22 Arizona State Saturday at 1 p.m. in the second round, with the winner advancing to the Sweet 16. The Sun Devils defeated North Carolina State, 4-1.

The Tigers had not played a match in three weeks, since the second round of the SEC Championships.

“We knew there were going to be some kinks to get out,” Auburn coach Lauren Spencer said.
