TULSA, Okla. – The Tulsa Golden Hurricane women's tennis team (13-8) welcomes the Temple Owls (10-5) to the Michael D. Case Tennis Center on Saturday for Senior Day, with first serve scheduled for 10 a.m. CT.
Tulsa will honor lone senior Martha Matoula prior to the match, as Temple enters Saturday with a 9-6 overall mark and a 0-2 record against American Athletic Conference foes.
