After a 12-day layoff, the U men’s tennis team returns to action today at the Eccles Tennis Center, where it faces Idaho State at 5 p.m.

The Utes last pounded the courts on April 15, when they scored a 6-1 victory over Sacramento State to erase a two-game losing streak and improve to 9-7 overall on the season.

They’ll have a good shot at turning that win into a winning streak against the Bengals. Not only does ISU come in at a modest 1-8 on the year, but Utah has yet to lose on its own home court, running its undefeated streak to 6-0 when not on the road.

This contest is the team’s second-to-last against a non conference opponent. On Friday, the U will travel to Ogden to take on Weber State in the finale.

MWC play gets underway on April 5 at New Mexico and April 6 at Air Force.
