Orlando is buzzing with excitement as the UCF men’s tennis team gears up for their season opener on Saturday, January 11. Originally, the Knights were set to face off against Elon University, but it seems plans have taken a turn. Elon has decided to withdraw from the competition due to an insufficient number of players.

The Knights have been keeping busy already this season, having participated in various early competitions that have primed them for this moment. They made quite a splash at the ITA All-American Championships, where several athletes showcased their talent, clinching notable victories both in singles and doubles play. The energy around the team is electrifying as they look to build on their successes.
This season opener is more than just a game; it’s a part of an exciting schedule that’s shaping up for the Knights. Following the dual matches against Louisiana, fans can look forward to the UCF Invite happening from October 4-6. This event promises to be a treat for tennis lovers, featuring competitions against other local teams such as South Florida, Florida Atlantic, and Stetson.
The tennis team is far from done! They will also participate in the ITA Southeast Regional Championships, scheduled for October 10-15, once again taking place at the USTA National Campus. It’s a jam-packed month, and the anticipation is palpable. All of these events are open to the public, so why not gather your friends and family and support our Knights?
