UNO will play tennis at the recently opened 26-court University Tennis Center, whose construction began several days prior to Katrina. The developer of the project, Pontchartrain Tennis, headed by New Orleans attorney Rob Couhig, proceeded to finish the project despite the uncertainties surrounding post-Katrina New Orleans. Since the opening, the facility has hosted several UTSA Challenger and Satellite events. The facility is also in line to host the Sun Belt Conference tennis championships. The UTC features six clay courts and 20 hard courts. The state of the art facility also features one stadium court.
