CLARKSVILLE – Austin Peay State University men's tennis is set to host IUPUI in a 6:00 p.m., Saturday match at the Evansville Tennis Center in Evansville, Indiana.

After a slow start to the season, coach Ross Brown's squad enters Saturday's match looking to pick up their first win of the season.

The Govs have deployed the same lineup in each of their first two matches, coming up just short against Lipscomb and Middle Tennessee. Senior Christian Edison has led the team from the No. 1 singles position in each of the season's first two matches, with Anton Damberg and Frederic Schlossmann manning the No.1 doubles position.

After Saturday's match, Austin Peay will stay on the road for a 2 p.m., Feb. 20 match at Carson-Newman and a Mar. 6 match at North Alabama before hosting a Mar. 3 match against St. louis in Evansville.
