RUSTON – The Louisiana Tech tennis team looks to get back into the win column on Saturday when they travel to face Arkansas State on Saturday at 10 a.m. at the A-State Tennis Complex.
 
LA Tech (4-3) had its four-match winning streak come to an end this past Wednesday, suffering a narrow 4-3 defeat at ULM. 
 
The Lady Techsters were not able to take advantage of winning the doubles point, losing four of the six singles matches. 
 
In doubles, Leonie Schuknecht and Ilana Tetruashvili have reeled off three straight wins at the top spot.  The other two doubles tandems, Claudia Oravcova/Anastasiia Salenko and Alexia Romero/Lara Unkovich, are each 3-3 this spring season.
 
Tetruashvili also owns a three-match winning streak in singles.  She provided one of the two singles points versus the Warhawks, winning big by a score of 6-3, 6-0 at the No. 3 position. 
 
Arkansas State (0-2) has played just two dual matches, losing 4-1 to both Central Arkansas and SEMO.  Saturday's match will be their first in 20 days.
 
The two squads are no strangers to each other as they faced off several times individually in the fall at both the UCA Invitational and the LA Tech Invitational. 
 
The Red Wolves lead the all-time dual series, 18-8, including a 4-3 win last season in Ruston.
