RENO, Nev. The University of Nevada women’s tennis team was Thursday to participate in the 2010 ITA National Team Indoor Championships during the second annual Intercollegiate Tennis Association Women’s Kick-Off Weekend Draft on Thursday.
The ITA Kick-Off Weekend features 15 host sites with four teams at each site vying to advance to the Team Indoor Championships. The 15 schools that win both of their matches at these events will be invited to play in the Feb. 12-15 ITA National Team Indoor Championships at the Nielsen Tennis Stadium (hosted by the Univ. of Wisconsin).
Nevada qualified for the event for the first time in school history. The Wolf Pack will be seeded No. 3 at its site and will play No. 2 seed Brown. Baylor is the top seed and host school and will play No. 4 seed Harvard.
“This is very exciting to be part of a National event for the first time,” Nevada coach Sylvain Malroux said. “It is an important step for our program.”
