NCAA Tennis Selection Show Later Today


By Travis Young -

The Vanderbilt men's and women's tennis programs will learn their NCAA Tournament fate Tuesday afternoon when the NCAA announces the "Field of 64" from 4- 5 p.m. CT on ESPNews.

The women's team is awaiting their 16th consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance while the men will be making their ninth overall trip to the prestigious tournament. It will mark the third time in the past four years that both team's will be playing in the NCAA Tournament during the same year.

Be sure to set your television to ESPNews at 4 p.m. Tuesday, to see where both Vanderbilt programs will be headed to in the first round.

The women's team, ranked 28th-nationally with a 13-9 record, is projected to be a No. 2 seed while the men, ranked 38th-nationally with a 13-10 record, are likely to be a No. 3 seed.

The first and second rounds of both the men's and women's tournament will be played May 14-16.
