UPDATE (2:48 p.m. CT): The co-dual match scheduled for Friday afternoon between the Ragin' Cajuns men's and women's tennis teams against Abilene Christian at Cajun Courts has been canceled due to impending weather.
ABILENE – Abilene Christian's sixth-ranked men's and women's tennis teams will both be on the road this weekend throughout Louisiana and Southeastern Texas to battle a wide range of NCAA DI opponents from Conference-USA and the Southland, Sun Belt, and SWAC Conferences.
The teams begin their trip Friday with a visit to Louisiana-Lafayette for a doubleheader against the Ragin' Cajuns and Nicholls State, but on Saturday they'll split up, as the women head to McNeese State, and the men go to Houston for a twin bill vs. No. 36 Rice and Prairie View A&M.
Sunday's action features the Wildcats against Lamar in Beaumont, Texas.
ACU's men's team began its 2012 season last weekend with a 3-2 trip to Kentucky, which included a hard-fought 7-0 loss to the seventh-ranked Wildcats, as well as wins over Southern Indiana, Northern Kentucky and DI Murray State.
Hans Hach – the No. 6 singles player in all of DII – finished the trip with an impressive 4-1 mark at the No. 1 spot, with his lone blemish being a three-set (6-7, 6-4, 6-4) loss to Kentucky's fifth-ranked Eric Quigley.
Senior Nick Plum matched Hach for the weekend's best singles record, winning twice at No. 3, and then at the No. 4 and 5 positions, before falling to UK's Grant Roberts.
No. 43 Alfredo Desiati went 3-2 at No. 2 singles, while newcomers Borja Cortes and Guilherme Gesser each went 2-3 playing between the No. 3 and 5 positions.
In doubles competition, head coach Hutton Jones utilized 10 different combinations with Hach and Desiati and the Plum Brothers (Nick and Kyle) each producing 2-0 records.
The Wildcats' women's team crushed all four of its opponents at last weekend's ACU Indoor Classic, winning by a combined score of 31-1. ACU shut out Texas-Permian Basin and Texas A&M-Kingsville by matching 9-0 scores, blanked Prairie View A&M, 7-0, and smashed Sam Houston State, 6-1.
Emily Conrad, Micah Hermsdorf, and Brittney Reed all finished with 4-0 singles records, while Felicity Delgado and Laura Mongin went 3-0.
Julia Mongin, ranked third by the ITA among all DII players, won both her matches at No. 1 singles and went 3-0 as a doubles player. She twice won with Reed and once with her twin sister, Laura.
Hermsdorf and Reed posted the best individual doubles records at 4-0. Hermsdorf won two matches each with Laura Mongin and Madelyn Walker, while Reed teamed with Julia Mongin and Conrad.
