BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The UAB women's tennis team begins a three-match road trip Tuesday at 1 p.m. when the Blazers travel to Boone, N.C., to face Appalachian State. The Blazers will remain in the state of North Carolina to battle Elon on Thursday and Charlotte on Friday.
MATCH INFORMATION
Opponent: Appalachian State
Date: Tuesday, March 13, 2018
Time: 1 p.m.
Location: Boone, N.C.
Venue: Appalachian State
Tjia Talk: "Just like last week, we have a lot of matches in a few days beginning with an Appalachian State team that is very good. We will also have to deal with playing at an altitude, which is something some of our kids have not had to deal with before. Our ability to deal with adversity and the conditions will definitely be tested this week."
MATCH INFORMATION
Opponent: Elon
Date: Thursday, March 15, 2018
Time: 1 p.m.
Location: Elon, N.C.
Venue: Jimmy Powell Tennis Center
Tjia Talk: "Elon is a team that we haven't faced before. They are a program that has a strong tennis history, and they are often in the ITA rankings. It is a great opportunity for us to face another quality program, and it is exciting to face teams that we have not seen before. Our goal during our spring break is to play some teams we don't normally have the opportunity to face."
MATCH INFORMATION
Opponent: Charlotte
Date: Friday, March 16, 2018
Time: 10 a.m.
Location: Charlotte, N.C.
Venue: Halton-Wagner Tennis Complex
Tjia Talk: "Charlotte is obviously a conference opponent, but we haven't faced them in a couple of years. Both teams have all new players from the last time we played them so there is not a lot of familiarity there. It will be good to get a chance to play them before the conference tournament in April."
