Utah State women’s tennis has released its 2019 spring schedule. The Aggies will host seven home matches, including their final three conference matches in Logan.
“We are really excited about this upcoming spring schedule,” McInerney said. “We have tried to schedule programs that we have not normally played, and we are excited for the new challenges. We have a young team, and we feel that this schedule will allow us to grow as a team and best prepare us for the tough Mountain West Conference schedule.”

Utah State women’s tennis returns five letterwinners from last year’s team that went 14-12 overall and 3-2 in Mountain West play in juniors Hannah Jones, Lucy Octave and Rhoda Tanui, as well as sophomores Alexandra Pisareva and Alexandra Taylor. Newcomers include freshman Annaliese County, Gabrielle Dekkers and Sidnee Lavatai. Pisareva is the top returner for the Aggies, earning all-MW honors last season after leading Utah State with a team-best 22 victories in singles.
