WINTHROP, Mass. – With an undefeated run through the league season, the Regis (Mass.) men’s tennis team earned the top seed in the North Division ahead of the 2018 Great Northeast Athletic Conference Men’s Tennis Tournament which gets underway this Saturday.
The Pride (13-5) finished the GNAC season at 3-0 and will host No. 2 Johnson & Wales (RI) on Saturday, Apr. 28 at the Regis Tennis Center. Start time is set for 2:00 p.m.
Looming on the other side of the bracket is five-time defending champion and South Division top seed Ramapo College who will square off against the University of Rutgers-Newark Saturday in the other semifinal. The winners of both matches will play Saturday, May 5 for the GNAC Championship and an automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament.
