ARLINGTON, Texas — A quick turnaround is in store for the UT Arlington men's tennis team (9-5) as they take on Georgia State and Georgia Southern this weekend at the UTA Tennis Center. It will be the first Sun Belt matches of the year, while wrapping up a six-match home stand.Â
Â
The Mavs will open up the weekend against Georgia State on Friday, March 22 at 2 p.m. before hosting Georgia Southern on Sunday, March 24 at 10 a.m.
UTA is coming off a route of Texas A&M – Corpus Christi, winning 4-0 on Tuesday at the UTA Tennis Center. Enrique Pardo, Alejandro Hayen and Jakub Grzegorczyk all won their singles sets in straight sets, while the teams of Pardo/Eduard Simo and Hayen/Miguel Cabrera clinched the doubles point for the Mavs.

UTA NOTES
• Senior Guanarteme Nuez picked up one of the biggest wins of his career earlier this week, defeating the 11th ranked player in the nation. Nuez is now on an eight-match winning streak and has a 10-3 record overall.
• Enrique Pardo has been dominant this spring, losing just two matches. His 12-2 record is leading the team, thanks in part to winning nine of his last ten matches.
