LEXINGTON, Ky. – After opening its Southeastern Conference slate with a sweep of LSU at home last Sunday, No. 16 Kentucky (11-1, 1-0 SEC) is set to hit the road for its second ranked matchup of the season against No. 10 Texas A&M (5-1, 1-0 SEC) on Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET.
 
The Wildcats are led on the top singles court by undefeated sophomore and two-time SEC Player of the Week No. 45 Liam Draxl, who is 10-0 on the season with three wins over nationally ranked opponents—including two players in the top six.
 
César Bourgois and Gabriel Diallo lead the way in doubles competition with a 3-1 record against top-60 foes on the No. 1 court.
 
Texas A&M enters Tuesday with five singles players ranked in the top 125, headed by No. 4 Valentin Vacherot.
 
Tuesday’s match was originally planned for last Friday but had to be rescheduled due to inclement weather.
