CHENEY, Wash.-- The Eastern Washington University women's tennis team will play host to Seattle University this Saturday at 11 a.m. Pacific time for their first home match of the 2019 season.

"We are looking forward to our home opener against a very tough Seattle University team," said head coach Dustin Hinson. "Our matches have always been battles back and forth every year but we have been preparing well and focusing on our game plan for success this weekend."

The Seattle Redhawks have an overall record of 0-1 with a 7-0 loss against Washington on Jan. 27. Seattle is led by head coach Joey Barnes who is in his first year as head coach.
