NORMAL, Ill. – Winners of seven-straight matches, the Illinois State women's tennis team heads to Tennessee for a pair of matches this weekend at Austin Peay and Lipscomb.
"We have a couple of tough challenges coming up this weekend," ISU head coach Maja Kovacek said. "Our goal is to adjust to outdoor tennis as quick as possible and give ourselves a chance against two very competitive teams."
ISU won all three of its matches last week, with victories over Western Illinois, UIC and Chicago State. The Redbirds were led in those matches by Tijana Zlatanovic, who went 3-0 in singles action and then combined with Tara Damnjanovic to go 3-0, which earned the duo Missouri Valley Conference Doubles Team of the Week honors on Wednesday.
