ORLANDO - The UCF men's tennis team will be seeking its fifth-straight victory when it hosts No. 43 Penn on Tuesday at 2 p.m. at the UCF Tennis Complex. The Golden Knights (7-2) will be playing for the first time since a 6-0 win over Conference USA foe Southern Miss on Feb. 26.
Penn is 7-4 on the season and has also claimed four matches in a row. The Golden Knights will be playing the fourth contest of a six-match homestand.
Sophomore Sinan Sudas is guiding the Golden Knights this season. He is 6-3 on the year at No. 1 singles and earned C-USA Tennis Athlete of the Week honors on March 1 after going 3-0 at the UCF/Conference USA Shootout.
Freshman Jimmy Roesch is also playing well as of late for UCF. He is 4-1 in 2006, all at the No. 6 singles position.
In their last outing, the Quakers recorded a 7-0 victory against cross-town rival Saint Joseph's last Wednesday. Sophomore Jason Pinsky is currently ranked 65th in the country in singles play.
UCF leads the all-time series with the Quakers, 2-0.
