The Gophers will host student-athletes from Augustana, Iowa State and South Dakota in a tournament format. Both days will begin at 9:00 a.m.
Four Minnesota student-athletes will be competing in the tournament. The Maroon and Gold competed in four tournaments over the fall hosting two of them.
The Gophers posted a 60-60 singles match record and were 46-31 in doubles during the fall. Freshman Cammy Frei and sophomore Camila Vargas Gomez led the team with nine singles victories while Frei teamed up with Caroline Ryba for nine doubles victories.
