TULSA, Okla. ― Coming off a 6-1 victory over No. 35 Oklahoma last Sunday, the Tulsa men's tennis team is set to play three matches next week. The Hurricane will host No. 45 Oregon Monday at 6 p.m. at the Michael D. Case Tennis Center before heading to Louisiana to face off against No. 44 LSU and No. 57 Tulane.
 
Tulsa is currently on a three-match win streak and has won six of its last seven matches. Ezequiel Santalla was named American Athletic Conference Player of the Week for the second consecutive week on Tuesday. Santalla became the first player in the conference to win the award multiple times this season, while Tulsa has won the award five times.
 
The Hurricane will look to continue its impressive eight-match home win streak Monday against Oregon. The Ducks are 8-5 on the season, and 0-2 on the road. The 45th ranked team has posted wins over Pepperdine and Denver earlier this season and are coming off consecutive wins last weekend.
 
Tulsa will take its third road trip of the season later in the week, facing LSU at 3 p.m. in Baton Rouge on Thursday and Tulane in New Orleans at 1 p.m. on Friday. LSU is 9-5 overall, and 7-1 at home. The Tigers are coming off an upset win over No. 20 Ole Miss last week and will play at No. 29 Vanderbilt and Alabama this weekend. Tulane is 6-7, but 3-1 on its home courts. The Green Wave downed Michigan State and Penn State last weekend and are set to host No. 35 Memphis and No. 71 Oklahoma State this weekend.
 
First serve for Monday's home match against Oregon is slated for 6 p.m., and admission to all Tulsa home matches is free!
