FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – The Arkansas men’s tennis team looks to close out the regular season on Sunday, as the Razorbacks host the Ole Miss Rebels at 1 p.m. at the Billingsley Tennis Center.

Sunday is also Senior Day for the Razorbacks, as Arkansas will honor its lone senior in Jose Salazar. The No. 25 singles player in the country, Salazar enters his final home match with a 16-6 mark this spring, including a 7-4 record against ranked competition. The Tenerife, Spain, native has won seven of his last eight matches entering Sunday, including five of the last six against ranked opponents, with wins over the No. 4 and the No. 8 players in the country.

Arkansas (12-13, 3-8 SEC) is looking to get back to .500 this season, as the Razorbacks head into postseason action. The Razorbacks look to win its fourth ever match over the Rebels, as Ole Miss has won 29 of the 32 previous meetings.

Last time out, Arkansas dropped its finals two road matches of the season, falling to No. 7 Mississippi State 6-1, before losing to Auburn 4-3.
