MONROE, La. – The UT Arlington women's tennis team will travel to Louisiana for two matches this weekend, taking on ULM on Saturday (April 3) before ending the weekend in Lafayette to take on Louisiana on Sunday (April 4).
Â
The Mavericks are 12-3 on the season and a perfect 5-0 in Sun Belt Conference play, dropping just two individual matches in the five matches played. UTA is coming off a 4-0 sweep of Texas State last Sunday at the UTA Tennis Center.
Â
In dual matches, UTA is winning nearly 80 percent (53-14) of their matches. Carla Pons leads the Mavericks with a 12-1 mark in dual play and has 17 wins dating back to tournament play.Â
Â
Polina Akimova is second on the team with 10 wins, while Lucia Natal will look to join the double-digit win club this season as she currently sits at a perfect 9-0.
Â
The tandem of Carla Pons and Almudena Boza have locked down the No. 3 doubles position, holding an 8-1 mark on court three and 9-1 record overall. Momoka Horiguchi and Bruna Casasampere are second on the team with a 6-2 record on court two. Horiguchi has 10 combined doubles win, including a 3-0 mark with Lucia Natal.
Â
UP NEXT
The Mavericks travel to Denton next Wednesday for a 2 pm match to take on the Mean Green of Texas State. The season is winding down for UTA, with just three matches left after this weekend – all of which are on the road.
