Tennessee State is 1-7 on the season and has lost back-to-back matches. The Tigers will also take on Northern Kentucky while visiting the Miami Valley, taking on the Norse Friday night.
Saint Francis (Pa.) is also taking on Northern Kentucky this weekend prior to playing the Flyers, battling with the Norse on Saturday. The Red Flash are 3-2 overall on the season.
Thomas More has played only three matches thus far in the season, compiling a 1-2 record. The Saints are a NCAA Division II school out of Kentucky whose two losses are both to Division I teams, Southern Indiana and Lindenwood, while the win came over NAIA Shawnee State.
