JEFFERSON CITY, Tenn. – Carson-Newman Men's Tennis and head coach Nathan Gangelhoff has officially unveiled the spring schedule.
Carson-Newman's season has already begun. With a decisive 4-1 victory over Young Harris last Saturday, the Eagles started year one of the Gangelhoff Era 1-0.
"I'm really looking forward to solidifying [C-N Tennis] being the program that I mold as an artist," Gangelhoff said. "Make it my own, in all aspects: on the court in matches, whether it's in the community making connections and letting everyone know that Carson-Newman Tennis is going to be a standhold within tennis, within the community, and to support the community."
The Eagles then turn their sights to two NAIA opponents on back-to-back days. On February 21, they will take on Bethel (Tenn.) on the road in McKenzie before returning the next day for the home opener at the Charles A. "Buddy" Catlett Tennis Complex against Union (Ky.) on February 22.
Carson-Newman clashes with two nonconference opponents. On February 25, it will play a road match at Lee. Then, on February 28, it will host King (Tenn.) to round out the February schedule.
The Eagles begin conference play with a dual meet against Catawba in Mossy Creek at 2:00 p.m., facing Limestone and UVA Wise on the road on Mar. 8 and Mar. 11, respectively before returning home to take on Lenoir-Rhyne on Mar. 13 to kick off a five-match homestand.
C-N has an odd mid-conference season match against a non-conference opponent as Purdue Northwest travels to Jefferson City on March 18. It will be the first-ever meeting between the Eagles and the Pride.
The following day Carson-Newman faces arch-rival Tusculum at 2:00 p.m. in Jeff City before finishing up the homestand hosting Coker and Emory & Henry on Mar. 22 and Mar. 25.
The Eagles next hit the court in Wingate, N.C. to take on the Bulldogs on Mar. 29 to wrap up the March schedule before picking up right where they left off in April with a road contest against Lincoln Memorial on April 2.
Carson-Newman Men's Tennis will celebrate Senior Day on April 4 against NAIA foe, Johnson (Tenn.) and wraps up the home schedule four days later on Apr. 8 against Mars Hill.
C-N finishes the regular season with a two-match road trip to the Palmetto State taking on Anderson (S.C.) and Newberry on Apr. 11 and Apr. 12.
The South Atlantic Conference Men's Tennis Tournament will occur between Apr. 16 and Apr. 18 hosted by the Palmetto Tennis Center in Sumter, S.C.
