🔼 Fours All Around. The men’s tennis team put up another win after defeating South Alabama 4-1. Yassine Dlimi won his ninth consecutive match. The Knights weren’t able to clinch the doubles point, but they won four of six singles matches, with two being left unfinished.

🔼 Three Decades Later… The men’s basketball team saw its first NCAA Tournament appearance 30 years ago, and we are still celebrating it today. The head coach at the time was Kirk Speraw. The 1993-94 season was his first year at UCF and his first head coaching job at the Division I level.

🏀 See how Speraw led the Knights to victory here.
