ABOUT LOUISIANA TECH
LA Tech combined for 23 singles and nine doubles victories during the fall season, which included three tournaments.  Freshman Ana Rodrigues finished the fall with a team-high six singles wins while Leonie Schuknecht and Ilana Tetruashvili tied for the best record in doubles with a 4-2 mark.
 
Tetruashvili is the lone senior on the team, having won 73 overall matches in her career.  Schuknecht returns as well after having a successful freshman campaign a year ago, playing every singles match at the top position in the spring.
 
Alexia Romero looks to keep her winning ways going as the junior has compiled an impressive 22-8 dual singles record, the fifth best dual singles record through the first two years in program history.
 
Lara Unkovich and Madison Cefalu also return to add depth to the LA Tech lineup.
 
Rodrigues is one of three newcomers along with Olga Bienzobas and Najah Dawson who are slated to make their spring debut with LA Tech this weekend.
 
This will mark the fifth straight season that the Lady Techsters open up the spring in Tulsa, Oklahoma at the Hurricane Invite.
