PRINCETON -- Both Princeton tennis teams will resume their fall schedules Saturday with events coast-to-coast. Princeton's men will play in the Yale Invitational, while Hilary Bartlett and Taylor Marable of the women's team will participate in the ITA All-America tournament in California.
Bartlett was included in the pre-qualifying singles draw of the iTA event, a 64-player draw which will advance eight players to the qualifying draw for a chance to continue play. Bartlett's first-round match will take place at 12:30 p.m. Pacific Time Saturday on the UCLA campus against Lauren Megale of Boise State.
Marable will team with Bartlett to begin play in the qualifying doubles draw Tuesday, Oct. 6 at the Riviera Tennis Club in Pacific Palisades, Calif. The draw for that event has yet to be announced.
On the men's side, nine Tigers will make the trip to Yale to compete in the two-day event Saturday and Sunday. There are three 16-player singles draws and three eight-team doubles draws, filled with players from seven schools: Cornell, Army, Maryland, St. Bonaventure, Scared Heart, Princeton and Yale.
