A pair of Lone Star Conference matches in the metroplex this week will be a key factor in getting Abilene Christian back in the thick of the Lone Star Conference race. After the Wildcats dropped their only match Thursday in San Angelo to Angelo State, ACU is sitting 2-3 in league play with a ninth-place standing.

The Wildcats are just one win away from matching their overall win total from a year ago when the team went 15-14 on the season. This year, the Wildcats are 14-7 overall.
