MIAMI (April 28, 2021) - After an impressive run at the Conference USA Championship last weekend, the FIU women's tennis team climbed to 39th overall in the latest ITA Oracle Collegiate Tennis Rankings. The ITA administers college tennis rankings based off the 312 teams across Division I women's tennis.
