BOCA RATON, Fla. – The Florida Atlantic University women's tennis team heads into 2023 with experience gathered from a blend of returners and newcomers, all with the goal of building a program that will challenge Conference USA while climbing the national ranks.
Accomplishing that goal will begin this weekend when the Owls travel to Fort Myers, Florida where they will face the Miami University RedHawks on Saturday at 12:30 p.m. It will be the season opener for the Owls, who hold a 2-1 all-time record versus the RedHawks. Miami, who defeated FAU 4-3 in their last meeting, will have one match under their belts (Miami plays UNT on Friday morning) when they face FAU.
Florida Atlantic welcomes the return of
Martina Kudelova and
Katerina Filip. The duo, who have both been recognized by C-USA as outstanding players, are positioned to etch themselves among FAU's tennis greats. Kudelova could very well become the program's all-time matches played leader while Filip stands to challenge the program's best in winning percentage. They are joined by returners
Millie-Mae Matthews, another C-USA decorated player,
Amber McGinnis and
Lexi Silna. The returning Owls welcome January transfer Victoria Gomez O'Haydon as well as incoming freshmen
Carla Galmiche and
Maya Shanok.
Matches are played at the Kimberly V. Strauss Tennis Center and are free and open to the public. Seating is available and cheering is encouraged.
