PALO ALTO, Calif. (May 10, 2023) – The Wyoming Cowgirl tennis team's opponent, time and seeding has been announced for its trip to the inaugural Universal Tennis NIT Championship next week. All matches will be streamed live via Amazon Prime Video.

The Cowgirls enter the tournament as the No. 5 seed and will face fourth-seeded Appalachian State at approximately 8 a.m., Mountain Time May 17. The Mountaineers went 13-8 during the spring and tied for third in the extremely competitive Sun Belt. Appalachian State went 1-1 this season in neutral-site matchups.

The winner of the opening round match will face the victor of TCU and UC San Diego. All teams are guaranteed a minimum of two matches at the NIT. The NIT field has changed a bit since last week as App State, Cal Poly and UC San Diego have joined the eight-team tournament, replacing Air Force, Iowa and Vanderbilt.
