EVANSVILLE, Ind.—University of Southern Indiana Women's Tennis begins the 2018-19 campaign Tuesday at 4 p.m. when it travels to Owensboro, Kentucky, to take on Midwest Region opponent Kentucky Wesleyan College.

The contest is the first of three dual matches and seven total events for the Screaming Eagles during the fall campaign. USI hosts the University of Charleston September 22 before visiting Oakland City University September 24.

Head Coach Keely Porter enters her 28th season at the helm of the Eagles and will rely on All-Great Lakes Valley Conference performer Lauren Hambrock (Terre Haute, Indiana) to lead the team in 2018-19.

Hambrock earned her second straight All-GLVC nod a year ago after posting a 9-17 overall record and an 8-13 mark at No. 1 singles. She also was 12-15 overall in doubles play and 10-12 at No. 1 doubles.

USI also is slated to compete at the ITA Midwest Regional September 15-17 in Allendale, Michigan, as well as the Skyhawk Invite September 28-29 in Martin, Tennessee. USI also is hosting a pair of fundraisers, including the "Shoe the Eagles" event September 19 at Rolling Hills Country Club in Newburgh, Indiana, and the "Broomstick Classic" October 25 at the USI Tennis Courts.
