WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - The Wake Forest men's tennis team will host Louisville on Saturday at 3 p.m., or immediately following the conclusion of the women's tennis match vs. Indiana set for 12 p.m.
Live scoring for the match will be available here.
The No. 17 Demon Deacons are 6-2 in 2008, picking up three wins last weekend over South Carolina (4-2), Brown (6-1) and East Tennessee (4-2) at the WFU Indoor Center. Junior Cory Parr and sophomore Steve Forman are 4-0 in singles through their last four contests, while together they lead the Demon Deacons with a 4-2 doubles record this season.
Saturday marks the first road contest of 2008 for the Cardinals, who've put up an 8-1 record from Louisville. Last week, the Cards had a Valentine's Day win over Middle Tennessee (5-2) and followed with a 5-2 win over Wisconsin on Sunday. Freshman Austen Childs, out of New Zealand, has a match-high ITA Rank of 40, and will likely battle Wake's 43rd-ranked Cory Parr at No. 1.
Next up for the Demon Deacons will be a March 1 doubleheader at the Indoor Center. First, Wake will host the Michigan Wolverines at 1 p.m., followed by local rival Davidson at 5 p.m.
