COLUMBIA, Mo. - The Missouri tennis team, ranked No. 72 in this week's national poll, opens the home portion of its 2012 schedule as the team hosts Arkansas-Fort Smith Saturday, Feb. 4 at 10 a.m. at the Green Tennis Center.

The Tigers entered the national rankings this week after a 5-2 win over No. 66 Fresno State at the ITA Kickoff Weekend last week. This marks the second straight season the team has been ranked in the ITA rankings, as Missouri was ranked much of last season.

On the season, Mizzou is 1-2 in dual matches, with both losses coming to top-20 teams.
