ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — The University of New Mexico women’s tennis head coach Stephanie Wooten-Quijada has announced that this weekend’s matches with Western New Mexico on Friday and CSU Pueblo on Saturday, and UNM’s road match at Abilene Christian on February 9 have been postponed indefinitely after four players were injured in a car accident.
Efforts will be made to get all three matches rescheduled, pending schedules. The Lobos are currently 1-1 on the season after losing to No. 19 Baylor and winning 6-1 over Western Michigan.
Four players were injured in the accident, although all are expected to return to action soon. The four student-athletes (Diana Wong, Ruth Copas, Yue Lin “Polly” Chen and Hsiang-Wen “Albie” Huang) were injured in a hit-and-run accident when a vehicle that ran a red light struck theirs and then sped away.
UNM is scheduled to now play its next game on February 17 when the team will travel to Northern Arizona for a 1 p.m. match.
