LARAMIE, Wyo. (May 15, 2023) – The Wyoming Cowgirl tennis team will play in its first postseason national tournament in program history beginning Wednesday with a matchup against Appalachian State beginning at approximately 8 a.m., Mountain Time.

Wyoming (14-10) enters the Universal Tennis NIT Championship as the No. 5 seed in the eight-team tournament.
