There’s been a lot of great college tennis action over the last 2 days but there’s still room for more as the MLK Holiday Weekend continues with 4 matchups between ranked teams.

#36 Louisville is fresh off a Friday sweep of #63 Troy and Dayton and be looking to run its record to 4-0 as it faces #26 Northwestern and Morehead State. I have a feeling that Northwestern’s top 3 is going to be a little tough tough today and will help the Wildcats start off the season with a win. After the match Northwestern will hop back into the van and cruise back up to Chicago so they can play another match at 7pm central against Chicago State.

#24 Florida opens up its season with a doubleheader against #63 Troy and Stetson and I expect to see the Gators roll in both. Florida is a very talented team that was the coaches voted picked to finish second this season so they’ll be a fun team to watch all season.

One of the most intriguing matches of the day will come in Durham. #13 Duke, fresh off a 6-1 season opening win over Elon, will host unranked Kentucky which opened up its season with a pair of routine wins on Friday over Eastern and Northern Kentucky. Duke’s Nicolas Alvarez will be tough to beat at #1 but Kentucky may have the advantage at 2, 3, and 4 with newcomer Ryotara Matsuuara and junior Nils Ellefsen both playing extremely well. Beck Pennington didn’t play at all on Friday so whether he plays in this one could be big.

The other match to keep an eye on is the one between #12 Texas and #62 Washington. Texas is coming off a 6-1 win over UC Santa Barbara while Washington is coming off a 4-3 loss to those same Gauchos. When you look at those results you’d think that this should be a slam dunk for Texas but I think Washington is going to come out with a lot of fight and play much better than they did on Friday. I think this is going to be a 4-3 match with the team that wins the doubles point ultimately winning the match.

As I mentioned a few weeks ago the SEC schools will now be allowed to stream matches again after not being able to last season because of creation of the SEC Network. Texas A&M will have its cameras rolling for its doubleheader against #66 UTSA and Lamar so take a peak to see what Arthur Rinderknech looks like at #1 and see if Harrison Adams is back in form after an off-season last year.
