NEW ORLEANS -- Because of a venue change, the men's and women's tennis teams of Xavier University of Louisiana will play their first dual matches of the 2010 spring semester at home.
Xavier and Nicholls State agreed to move their Saturday duals from Thibodaux, La., to the University of New Orleans Tennis Center, where the majority of XU home matches will be played this season. Starting time of both duals will be at noon, one hour earlier than originally scheduled.
Xavier's women will play twice in New Orleans this weekend. The Gold Nuggets will play Loyola at noon Sunday at Tulane's Goldring Stadium. The Gulf Coast Athletic Conference dual will be Loyola's home match and the Wolfpack's first since the 1990s.
