The Kentucky men’s tennis team will battle the Duke Blue Devils in first round action of the USTA/ITA National Indoor Team Championships. The match will begin at 4 p.m. at the Louisville Tennis Club.

The Cats are coming off a 5-3 loss to #8 UCLA on Tuesday, Feb. 22. The teams used the new ITA scoring format for the meet, giving a team that wins all three doubles matches two points, rather than just one point. UCLA swept the doubles action and won three of the six singles matches.

The National Team Indoors are being hosted by the UK Athletics Association for the 15th time in 16 years.
