SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. -- The University of San Francisco men's tennis program and head coach
JT Sundling unveiled their 2023 spring schedule on Friday morning as the Dons will return to action later this month following a successful fall season.

The Dons will then return to action in early February across the Bay Bridge when they face the Cal Golden Bears on February 2 at 10:00 a.m., USF will then head south the next weekend to San Luis Obispo to battle with the Cal Poly Mustangs on February 10 and will then compete in a neutral site meeting against the Grand Canyon Antelopes the following day at noon.

USF's schedule this spring features just four matches in the City by the Bay with the first two coming at the end of March as well as the beginning of April as the Dons will welcome Pacific Northwest opponents the Gonzaga Bulldogs on March 31 followed by the Portland Pilots on April 1.
