CARBONDALE, Ill.-- The Southern Illinois University men's tennis team will travel to Clarksville, Tenn. Saturday for a dual match with Austin Peay University.

Southern returns to action after splitting its matches last weekend with Wisconsin and University of Missouri- Kansas City. The Salukis dropped their contest with the Badgers but picked up a win last Sunday sweeping the doubles competition against UMKC.

The Governors enter the weekend 0-1 after dropping their season-opening match to Samford. The team boasts impact players like three-time All-Ohio Valley Conference selection, Sean Bailey. As a team, APSU was projected to finish second in an OVC pre-season poll.

First serve is slated for 1 p.m. at the APSU Tennis Center.
