Rebels to Compete in Tournament Opener Versus Michigan at Noon CT on Saturday
OXFORD, Miss. – Ole Miss women's tennis (2-0, 0-0 SEC) travels to Atlanta to compete in ITA Kickoff Weekend matches hosted at Georgia Tech Saturday and Sunday. The Rebels face No. 14 Michigan (2-0, 0-0 Big 10) on Saturday at noon CT in the opening round.
ITA Kickoff Weekend serves as the preliminary qualifiers for the ITA National Indoor Tournament.

The Rebels are the No. 3 seed in the Georgia Tech region.
Back Inside

Ole Miss placed runners-up in Chapel Hill region in 2021, falling to No. 1 overall seed UNC in the second round. The Tar Heels went on to win the National Indoor title last year. The Rebels defeated Old Dominion in the opening round last year. The Monarchs are the No. 4 seed in the Georgia Tech draw this season and could potentially face the Rebels in the second round this go around.
