West Virginia set to host Cleveland State

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The West Virginia tennis team begins its spring 2021 season Friday, Feb. 19, as the Mountaineers welcome Cleveland State to Morgantown.

First serve from the Summit Tennis Academy, originally scheduled for 2 p.m., is now set for 12 p.m. Live stats for tomorrow’s match will be available on wvusports.com. Due to ongoing COVID-19 health and safety protocols, fans will not be permitted to attend home matches at the Summit Tennis Academy or the Mountaineer Tennis Courts this season.

“We are very excited to be starting the spring season against Cleveland State at home,” WVU coach Miha Lisac said. “I cannot tell you how excited I am going to be to be back on the court and actually competing.”

Cleveland State enters Friday’s contest with a record of 0-3. CSU’s three-match skid includes losses to Eastern Michigan, Miami (OH) and Toledo.

West Virginia is coming off a 7-3 campaign a season ago. In the spring, senior Anne-Sophie Courteau led all returners with a singles record of 5-3 and a doubles record of 5-4. Junior Nicole Roc also record five wins a year ago and went a team-best 2-1 in Big 12 singles play.
