After a month of matches on the road, the tennis team returns home for matches Saturday and Monday against Saint Louis University and Cleveland State.
Last weekend the Jayhawks traveled to New Orleans to play against Tulane and The University of New Orleans. After losing 7-0 to Tulane, Kansas bounced back with a 4-0 victory over New Orleans, which was cut short because the opponents had played a double header the day before and their coach wanted to end the match to give the athletes a break since they were already down.
“We used it as an experience,” Freshman Sara Lazarevic said. “I think we all learned something from each of the matches and we all set out with specific goals that we wanted to accomplish the next match.”
The Jayhawks return home after a month of away matches with important lessons.
“It showed us that we need to know how to adapt, and be ready to switch back and forth and take every match and build off of it,” Lazarevic said.
The Jayhawks are set to play two matches at home, one at 3 p.m. Saturday and one at 12 p.m. Monday.
“It is great playing at home because you are in a comfort zone, you don’t have to try out courts or balls,” Lazarevic said. “I think that we are able to take each win and build our confidence off of it.”
