SAN ANTONIO - The UTSA women's tennis team will conclude the regular season this Saturday, April 16 when they travel to Huntsville, Texas for a make-up match against the Louisiana-Monroe Indians, with play beginning at 10 a.m. At stake for UTSA will be a spot in the 2005 Southland Conference Women's Tennis Championships to be held the following week at the UTSA Tennis Center.
