NORFOLK, Va. -- The Old Dominion women's tennis team will begin its 2022 fall slate this weekend participating in the Wahoowa Invitational hosted by the University of Virginia.
 
Teams joining the Monarchs in Charlottesville will include: N.C. State, Illinois, LSU, Princeton, West Virginia, Auburn and the host Wahoos.
 
Old Dominion returns five players off of last year's 21-7 squad that made the second round of the NCAA Tournament and won its second straight Conference USA Tournament. Tatsiana Sasnouskaya is a returning doubles All-American who is ranked 44th with Sofia Johnson in the preseason ITA rankings. In singles, Alexandra Viktorovitch and Sasnouskaya are the lone ranked Monarchs at 78thand 81st respectively.
 
"I'm excited to get back on the courts competing with the Monarchs," said ODU Head Coach Dominic Manilla. "The first event of the year always feels like a long time coming. It's been great the past few seasons to start at Virginia as its always a top-notch event. The fall is a great time to develop our players physically and mentally for the spring season so we put them in front of the toughest competition we can."
