AUBURN, Ala. – For the third time in program history, the Auburn women's tennis team will host the first and second rounds of the NCAA Tournament at the Yarbrough Tennis Center.
Auburn will be the No. 13 national seed and will welcome Jackson State, Memphis and Georgia Tech to the Plains for competition Friday and Saturday.
"Hosting NCAA regionals and earning the opportunity to play at home is something this team has worked for every single day," Auburn head coach Caroline Lilley said. "Their consistency in training, rage to master, and ability to learn serve as an incredible foundation for growth. As excited as we are to host, we are even hungrier to improve between now and Friday."
