BEAUMONT, Texas – The UT Arlington men's tennis team will head to Lamar University this weekend to play in the Ron Wesbrooks Invitational beginning Friday (Oct. 11) afternoon. The three-day, individual-format tournament will run through Sunday with all matches taking place at the Thompson Family Tennis Center on the Lamar Campus.
Â
The Mavericks will be one of five teams competing in four flights of singles and one 16-team doubles draw. Along with UTA and host Lamar, Nicholls, UTSAÂ and Tyler Junior College will all be competing as well.
Â
Competition will begin Friday at 2 p.m. with the first of two rounds of doubles competition on the opening day. Singles matches are slated to get underway at 3 p.m. Teams will return to the court Saturday at 9 a.m., with the championship-round matches beginning Sunday at 9 a.m.
Â
This will be the first competition for the majority of the team in nearly three weeks, last competing in the ITF Pro Future in mid-September. Angel Diaz was the lone participant a week ago, playing in the IT All-American Championships, but fell in the pre-qualifying round 7-6 (1), 4-6, 5-7 to Niklas Gerdes of UT-Chattanooga.
