May 02, 2022 | Women's Tennis
INDIANAPOLIS – Making its fourth consecutive tournament appearance under head coach Alison Ojeda, the Tennessee women's tennis team is in the 2022 NCAA Championship and will begin its run at the Raleigh Regional beginning Saturday, May 7.
"Getting selected for the NCAA tournament is always an accomplishment," Ojeda said after the selection show. "With that said, I really do want to make sure that our team is maximizing the opportunity that we have in front of us. We are a top team and with all my heart, I believe that we can make a deep run in this event and make Tennessee proud of its women's tennis team."
The Lady Vols (15-9, 7-6 SEC) will be the No. 2 seed in the Raleigh Regional, hosted by the sixth national seed NC State. Tennessee will face the Atlantic 10 champion VCU in the Round of 64. The winner will face either NC State or William & Mary in the regional final.
UT has made the tournament every year coach Ojeda has been at the helm. The Lady Vols hold a 34-28 all-time record in the tournament and are making the program's 29th appearance in the event.
Tennessee last played in a regional in Raleigh, N.C. in 2019 and advanced to the Round of 32 that year before being eliminated by the Wolfpack.
MATCH SCHEDULE:
Saturday, May 7 at 11 AM: Tennessee vs. VCU
Saturday, May 7 at 2 PM: NC State vs. William & Mary
Sunday, May 8 at 2 PM: Winners in second round
