After much construction and waiting the SMU Tennis Complex is ready for competition.

The SMU women’s tennis team will open up the facility this weekend with the Blue & Red Challenge.

The top-notch facility features six indoor and six outdoor courts and that’s not all. It also features a training room, locker rooms and office space. South Alabama, Wichita State and Wyoming will all travel to Dallas to help open up this state-of-the-art facility.

The Mustangs are coming off of a competition in Houston where Anna Kate Anderson went undefeated in three matches winning her singles flight. Winning the doubles flight was the doubles team of Vaszilisza Bulgakova and Dasha Sharapova.

The Blue & Red Challenge will be the final tournament of the fall season for the Mustangs.

The season was highlighted by Holly Verner and Hristina Dishjova’s performance in doubles which led them to the semifinals of the ITA Regional.

“The ITA Regional is the premier event of the fall,” Head Coach Kati Gyulai said. “We put in the hours on and off the court all semester. I am very pleased to see that our hard work is paying off. We look forward to getting better as the season continues.”

Their run at the ITA Texas Regional semifinals came to an end when they fell to TCU’s Seda Arantekin and Stefanie Tan; 6-4, 6-2.

“Congratulations to Hristina and to Holly for reaching the semifinal of the ITA Regional,” Gyulai said. “They played phenomenal tennis all fall and it was great to see them peak at this tournament. I am very proud of the improvements they have made and for leading our team.”

The duo has posted a 9-3 record in doubles this fall season.

The Blue & Red Challenge begins Friday at noon and will conclude on Sunday.
