JONESBORO, Ark. (4/4/25) – Arkansas State women’s tennis looks to bounce back from a pair of tough home losses this weekend, traveling to Troy and Georgia State.
A-State (11-7, 4-3 SBC) will take on the Trojans (8-7, 3-3) at 10 a.m. Friday in Troy before traveling to Atlanta to face GSU (3-11, 2-4) at 10 a.m. Monday. The Red Wolves enter the week in a four-way tie for fifth in the Sun Belt standings with four matches remaining in the regular season.
“Not being able to close out our last two matches at home left a bad taste in our mouth,” A-State head coach Sujay Lama said. “It’s also a reminder that every match in this league comes down to a point here and there. Our focus this weekend is finishing and developing a killer instinct.”
NOTABLES:
- A-State is 10-0 this season when clinching the doubles point.
- The Red Wolves’ 11 wins are currently the most since the 2009 squad won 12 matches.
- A-State’s four conference wins is the most since 2000 (7).
- Freshman Loles Carbo Chova is 6-0 in Sun Belt Conference play this year at the No. 6 position.
- Sujay Lama‘s 19 wins through his first season-plus is the third most wins by an A-State tennis coach in their first two seasons, three shy of matching Marcia Williams (1985-86, 22), and two away from tying Sara Wooley (21, 1979-80).
