HONOLULU--The University of Hawai'i men's tennis team ( 0-1) continues its opening week of the season with a pair of dual matches against Arizona. The Rainbow Warriors will take on the Wildcats on Saturday, Jan. 11 at 2:00 p.m. and Sunday, Jan. 12 at 11:00 a.m. Both matches will be held at the UH Tennis Complex.

The Rainbow Warriors endured multiple rain delays, but were able to get one out of two matches in against Duke earlier this week. The Blue Devils held off UH, 4-1. Hawai'i's No. 1 Andre Ilagan earned UH's lone win, as he recorded a hard fought, straight-set victory over Luca Keist, 6-1, 7-6 (6). UH's No. 3 Blaz Seric and No. 3 Axel Labrunie both took their matches to the third set. But Duke was able to stymie the 'Bows for the win.

Arizona opens the 2020 season this weekend. Last year, the Wildcats finished the 2019 season ranked No. 30 in the ITA final rankings with a 17-8 overall record. Arizona is led by three players who were ranked in the Fall 2019 ITA singles rankings--No. 36 Filip Malbasic, No. 61(T) Jonas Ziverts, and No. 86 Alejandro Requant-Bicardi.
