Ole Miss Women’s Tennis vs Memphis on Sunday, February 23, 2014 in Oxford, MS.<\/p><\/div>\n

OXFORD, Miss. \u2013 The No. 24 nationally ranked Ole Miss women\u2019s tennis team gets ready for a three-match homestand against No. 44 South Carolina, No. 7 Florida, and University of Arkansas-Pine Bluff, as part of the Regions Bank Grove Bowl festivities this weekend. It will also be the final home matches for senior Caroline Rohde-Moe.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s always exciting when you have a lot of people on campus for a big weekend,\u201d head coach Mark Beyers said.\u00a0 \u201cHopefully some of them will find their way over to the tennis center either Friday afternoon or Sunday after church and hopefully we can get a couple wins this weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Rebels are coming off their 25th consecutive win against Mississippi State last weekend, downing the Bulldogs 4-2. This marked the Rebels fourth straight SEC win bringing them to 5-4 in league play.<\/p>\n

Fans coming to Friday\u2019s match at 3 p.m. against South Carolina will enjoy free chicken tenders between doubles and singles.\u00a0 One lucky fan will win a free tennis racquet as well.<\/p>\n

South Carolina comes into the match 12-8 overall, 3-6 in SEC play. The Gamecocks are led by Elixane Lechemia, who comes in ranked 117th.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have two really good teams coming in here,\u201d Beyers said. \u201cSouth Carolina struggled for awhile this season, but they\u2019ve really picked it up lately. They beat LSU and Arkansas this past weekend, which is no easy feat.\u00a0 They\u2019re going to come in like us, pretty confident.\u00a0 It will be interesting to see which team can carry on the winning streak.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sunday\u2019s doubleheader begins at 11 a.m. when the Rebel\u2019s take on Florida. Fans will receive Ole Miss tennis glasses and another chance to win a free tennis racquet.<\/p>\n

Florida comes into the weekend with an overall record of 14-4 and 7-2 in the SEC. They are coming off two home wins this past weekend against Arkansas and LSU. They are led by senior Sofie Oyen, who won her 100th career singles match last weekend as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously Florida is one of the top programs in the country,\u201d Beyers said. \u201cI feel like we can compete with anybody, we\u2019ve shown that against Georgia and Vanderbilt. Even though we came up a little short in those matches, the girls have shown that they can compete with those teams.\u201d<\/p>\n

Following the Florida match, Ole Miss will play Arkansas-Pine Bluff in a non-conference match starting not before 3pm.<\/p>\n

The Rebels are looking to improve their SEC record and pick up three more wins as they close out the regular season home schedule.<\/p>\n

Rohde-Moe has played every match in the top half of the lineup during her career and has helped lead the Rebels to the NCAA Championships each of her years as well as earned All-SEC honors twice.\u00a0 Off the court, she is an outstanding student.\u00a0 A member of the Honors College, Rohde-Moe has been named an ITA Scholar-Athlete twice, is a finalist for the Boyd McWhorter Scholar-Athlete of the Year and will receive a Taylor Medal, the highest academic honor at the University of Mississippi.<\/p>\n

Beyers talked about what Rohde-Moe has meant to the program on and off the court.<\/p>\n

\u201cCaroline has had a great career; she\u2019s meant so much to this program. It\u2019s hard to replace somebody like her with that kind of energy and everything she does for our program. Hopefully we can have a good last few weeks of the regular season and a great NCAA Tournament, so we can extend her career as long as possible.\u00a0 The awards she\u2019s won academically are unbelievable.\u00a0 She\u2019s the total package as far as the student-athlete goes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Admission to all home matches is free.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
