MUNICE, Ind. - The Illinois State men's tennis team (4-3) travels to the state of Indiana. winning its last three matchups. The Redbirds will face Ball State (4-4) Saturday at 1 p.m. CT, and No. 58 Indiana (7-6) Sunday at 2 p.m. CT.

Illinois State faces a familiar foe in Ball State. Since the 1995-96 season, the Redbirds have participated in the Ball State Invitational 17 times. The last time the program faced Indiana was in the 2010-11 season when ISU lost to the No. 45 ranked Hooisers, 7-0.
