    The Air Force men's tennis team plays its first home match of the 2009-10 campaign this Saturday, Feb. 13 against Northern Arizona. The match is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. and will take place on the AFA indoor courts located inside the Cadet Gymnasium. Admission is free to the public.

    The Falcons are 1-1 this spring after splitting a pair of matches a couple of weeks ago. Air Force lost to the University of Denver, 6-1, in the season opener on Jan. 29, then defeated Northern Colorado, 7-0, the following day.

    Freshman Lance Wilhelm won both of his singles matches at the No. 1 spot, including an impressive, straight-set victory over Denver's Yannick Weihs, the Mountain Region's ninth-ranked player.

    Saturday's match marks the first home match for new head coach Dan Oosterhous.
