North Dakota and Iowa State will be squaring off for the sixth time in series history on Saturday. Iowa State has won all five previous matches, the latest coming last season when the Cyclones dominated the Fighting Hawks at home, winning 7-0.
LAST TIME OUT
The Cyclones finished the fall season on a history-making note. Iowa State made its first appearance at the ITA Fall National Championships, sending four student-athletes to compete. The No. 27 player in the country, Thasaporn Naklo, earned her spot by becoming the first Cyclone ever to win an ITA event at the ITA Central Regional Championships.
CYCLONE TENNIS QUICK HIT
Iowa State enters the spring riding a 17-match home winning streak that dates back to the 2018-19 season. Their last loss came on April 12, 2019, when the Cyclones nearly upset No. 6 Texas but came up just short, losing 4-3. The 17-match streak is the longest in school history.
