STONY BROOK, N.Y. — The Seawolves tennis program is back in action!
Ahead of the team's trip to the Brown Invitational this coming weekend, head coach
Gary Glassman released the squad's 2021-22 schedule that includes four fall tournaments and a spring slate of 17 dual matches before the Missouri Valley Championships in Des Moines, Iowa.
After this weekend's tournament in Providence, R.I., the squad heads to the ITA Regional Tournament in West Point, N.Y. before the MVC Individual Championships in Valaparaiso, Ind., the following weekend.
Sasha Bekirova and
Loreto Villalba-Rubio each earned a title at the 2019 version of the tournament, with Bekirova helping lead her No. 1 doubles team to a title and Villalba-Rubio earning the trophy in No. 7 singles.
Should the team advance far enough in West Point the first weekend of October, they will travel to Princeton, N.J., for the ITA Super Regionals the weekend of October 15-17.
Stony Brook's dual meet schedule opens in West Point, N.Y., the first weekend of February, taking on St. Bonaventure and Army West Point on February 4 and 5.
After Seton Hall (February 11) and Lehigh (February 12), Glassman's club heads to Connecticut for four consecutive matches, taking on UConn and Quinnipiac on February 18 and 19, followed by Sacred Heart and Fairfield on February 25 and 26.
A trip to the Ocean State follows that, with weekend matches against Rhode Island (March 4) and Brown (March 5) before a three-week break. Yale will close out the stretch of 11 straight dual matches away from home before a five-match homestand encompasses the first two weeks of April.
