INDIANAPOLIS - The No. 12-ranked University of Indianapolis men's tennis team is set to host the ITA National Team Indoor Championship this weekend. The three-day event will begin this Friday, Feb 14, and will run through Sunday afternoon. 

The 2025 ITA Division II National Team Indoor Championship showcases eight of the top men's Division II tennis teams in the three-day tournament to crown an indoor national champion. The Greyhounds enter the tournament as the sixth seed, and will open competition against the third seed, No. 4 Barry this Friday at 2:30 PM. The winner of that match will face the winner of the second and seventh seed, No. 2 Flagler and No. 7 West Florida. 

On the other side of the bracket, No. 3 Saint Leo defends their position as the one seed against No. 8 Washburn. No. 5 Columbus State will take on No. 7 in the five vs. four seed matchup.

Last year at the ITA National Indoor Championship, the Hounds finished in fifth place, losing in the first round to Columbus State before taking wins over then No. 8-ranked Wayne State and No. 1-ranked Valdosta State. 

UIndy is off to a 4-1 start on the year, collecting wins against No. 22 Ferris State, Thomas More, Purdue Northwest, and Tiffin. Their one loss came at the hands of No. 17-ranked Wayne State. Junior Matthieu Derache has started the year on a tear in singles, with a perfect 5-0 record on the year playing mostly in #3 singles. Sophomore Tadeo Gaggiofatto also has an unblemished mark in singles competition, sporting a 5-0 mark primarily in #5 singles.
