Winter storm cancels tennis match

Iowa and Iowa State unable to host duals

Today’s scheduled tennis dual between Kansas and Iowa in Iowa City has been be cancelled due to a major winter storm that hit Iowa on Thursday evening. Kansas was scheduled to play Iowa at 3 p.m., before traveling to Ames to take on Iowa State on Saturday.

According to a release from the Athletics Department, a decision whether to cancel that dual will be made today. Kansas is currently 2-8 (0-2 Big 12) after a 6-1 road loss to No. 41 Oklahoma State last Saturday.

If played, Saturday’s dual against Iowa State would give Kansas an opportunity to pick up its first conference win of the season, and to extend its winning streak against Iowa State to 28. Kansas has not lost to Iowa State since 1981.

Iowa State is 4-3 (0-3 Big 12) following a weekend in Colorado. The Cyclones defeated Northern Colorado, 4-3, and fell to No. 47 Colorado, 7-0.
