Netmen Head Down South For National Indoor Tournament

Harvard men's tennis team will take to the courts at 8 a.m. today against Duke and begin its journey through the USTA/ITCA National Indoor Team Championship at the Louisville Tennis Club in Louisville, Ken.

The Crimson is one of 20 teams competing over the weekend for national bragging rights on the collegiate tennis circuit.

Harvard has an overall record of 5-8 at the tournament. The team's best finish was a seventh place in 1985. The squad made its mark two years ago by coming in unranked and knocking off three teams in the Top 15.
